Land Bay PT's

I worked with Jon Braddick and various support staff for 2 x BTL's PT's. The level of the support is really positive and helpful and a definite plus of using Landbay this level of customer service.

We reached the outcome we wanted

We reached the outcome we wanted! Parts of the process were quite lengthy and a little frustrating (which is why I have not given a full 5 stars) however I chose Landbay as a lender as they were lending outside of the box and made allowances where other lenders would not, so you can't have it all! There were many hurdles that we overcame and we reached completion so my client was very happy!

Landbay are the most unprofessional…

Landbay are the most unprofessional lender i have ever known . I paid off a mortgage account 27th February this year and they still have there charge on the property which means that completion today was postponed . I then called to ask what is going on only to be told that they put the wrong title number on the DS1 so Head Office have sent it back asking for the right title number so more delays and no apologies . I have reported them to the Financial ombudsman so see how we get on .

I worked with Christ Plaster on my clients 4 x BTL remortgages and he was incredible to work with. He was so proactive and was able to underwriter and agree the cases in record time., the clients have a large property portfolio and having used other lenders in the past – the service really stood out as exceptional.

I have been so impressed with the overall service provided by Chris and Ian May and wouldn’t hesitate to use Landbay for any new cases.

This was a straightforward product…

This was a straightforward product switch. You requested a new valuation at significant cost and very detailed ID request despite the client being an existing client. The delays resulted in the client being on SVR for 1 month and the additional interest cost was avoidable in my opinion.

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. Our Product Transfer process can sometimes differ from other lenders because of our funding model. We work with multiple funding partners to offer a wide and competitive range of buy to let mortgage products, and occasionally this means your funding partner may change during a transfer.

We understand this can add an extra step, but we’re committed to keeping the process smooth and transparent through our fully digital journey. Your comments are really valuable to us and help us continue improving the experience for our customers.
