It has been ok - in fact I would rate higher but for the suggestion of using Gordon's solicitors who I did not find helpful. I have sent them a separate review. In short they overlooked an extra £500 I had to pay (unexpectedly) until the day of completion. Ok - errors happen but I then spent 45 minutes on the phone trying to get through to them to pay. This is not a one off - the previous time I had to call had a similar waiting time to get through. They also charge £0.95 to pay a bill by debit card. I can understand charges for credit cards (just!) but to do so for debit cards when you are paying £500 for their service is insulting. I would never use them again.

Hi Allan Thanks for leaving feedback, we're sorry to hear you didn't feel the solicitors offered the same level of service as we do, we encourage customers to liaise direct with us where possible so that we can do the leg work with the solicitors for you (albeit this isn't always possible). We hope the solicitors don't reflect directly on ourselves and you will continue to use us!

All the staff at Simply Finance are friendly, yet professional, and very efficient in what they do. I was having problems re-mortgaging due to the new affordability rules but Sarah took the problem away from me, found a new lender to match my circumstances and sorted most of the dreaded paperwork on my behalf. Overall I am very happy with the service I received.

Donna-Gail Linsdell is an absolute star - she worked so hard to find me a lender and then drove the whole process through with devotion to detail, communicating fully and clearly to keep me fully informed throughout the process.

Very attentive but could have tried to anticipate all of the material the client needed for the remortgage to improve the speed of the process.
