london & country - beware!!

What a shower!! Tried for 4 WEEKS to get a mortgage through them - inept, inefficient and incompetent. Apart from letting off steam I would not recommend them ( as Martin has done). I eventually used a local broker and obtained a better deal in 2 HOURS.

  • could you expand on your problems?
  • Where to start! Delays due to products being withdrawn after application (not L&Cs fault perhaps) but they never bothered to tell us! Phone calls answered by voicemail and not returned. Emails unanswered and little or no communication between departments there. 4 weeks later NO further forward. A mortgage offered by c&g but no progress as we hadn't chosen it!!! (EVen though we have emails to show we chose it 2 weeks previously) - no wish to go on. Property is to be surveyed tomorrow and completion 1 week after application.
