Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Confusing language and conflating earnings figures.

Beacon have been recommended by a couple of friends so imagine my surprise when they mixed up some of my earnings figures which resulted in a significantly lower loan amount estimation.

Even worse, the person I've been taking to cannot differentiate between the words "years'" and "year's" which caused a lot of confusion and wasted time emailing back and forth.

Fortunately there are a lot of options so I'll work with someone else.

NEVER USE THIS COMPANY

NEVER USE THIS COMPANY , they advised my parents to go from a repayment mortgage with 13 years left , to a interest only mortgage over a further 20years , they sold the mortgage to my mum who had dementia , my parents will be 91 and 89 when they pay back the interest and will then be homeless, we are in court proceedings

Hi Clare, we are very sorry to hear that your parents are in this situation, however i think you have us confused with Beacon Homeloans (who have since been taken over by a company called Redstone). We do not, and have never had, any affiliation with their company. I hope you manage to get everything sorted through the courts.

No fee to pay- would recommend

Beacon Mortgages arranged our buy to let mortgage, the adviser was great and kept us up to date with the progress. We did not have to pay a fee which we would have done if we had gone to our bank. Would highly recommend.

Would recommend

I contacted Beacon Mortgages for a mortgage review. An adviser rang me back within an hour of me first calling them. The adviser arranged my remortgage and the process was easy. Not only did they not charge a fee but they saved me money each month. Would recommend Beacon Mortgages.
