Furness Building Society?

Options
Just wondering if anybody has used these at all?

Our mortgage advisor has suggested them to us & their rates are by far the best for our circumstances, but the rate almost seems too good to be true.

Anybody know of or used them?
My debts at 11th April 2011:
Virgin Credit Card - [STRIKE]£1,900[/STRIKE] £1,500 (21.1% paid off)
Nationwide Authorised OD - [STRIKE]£2,000 [/STRIKE] £1,500 (25% paid off)
Student Loan - exact amount TBC but circa £5,000

I'm on the road! :T

    Hi, I used them for a good 3 year fix in 2007. I went direct and the original key facts was wrong and a couple of other things were wrong but they sorted this out and once set up it was fine. Staff were always friendly and tried their best to help, I don't think it's a very large building society at all! At the end of the fix last year they didn't have any decent deals for us so I went to First Direct.
