So we have a mortgage with C&G, and we are buying a new place. As background, the last purchase ended up with us starting proceedings against C&G as they were so crap.
.
So with some trepidation, I called them this morning...
.
2 phone calls, 5 times forwarded on to colleagues as 'they were not the right department' - and then the lady suggests they cannot give me a quote / options as she is not the sales lady, just the new lending team...
.
The manager I was put through to also seemed nonplussed that I wanted to compare their offer to other providers...
.
What a useless shower of incompetent, dis-organised and thick monkeys.
.
I refuse to give my money to a company that cannot organise the sales team, let alone actually sort a product out.

Other lenders are available 😉 , i've had a c&g mortgage for years and never had an issue.... apart from them trying to lend me more than i wanted.... My view is they are all a shower of... its just a case of hitting lucky with individuals who work for them who may be switched on...

Time to speak with a mortgage broker? If you started proceedings against them last time, how the devil are you still with them or considering giving them business this time?

I was considering at they (on website and in letter with mortgage statement) were suggesting I could borrow more (which we need), or port the (good) deal we have all for no fees, free valuation and free legals.
The fee/costs would save £3.5k+ Worth taking a chance on.
Anyhow, they wont help. It has taken 1hr 30 mins and 11 people on the phone to tell me that....
