I had a very informative and constructive conversation with Phillip regarding remortgaging my apartment. I felt confident with the information that I was given and would highly recommend Brilliant Money.

Can’t praise Brilliant Money enough. I was skilfully guided through my house purchase by the very patient and charming broker Philip. His attention to detail was painstaking. He made the whole, potentially very stressful, process smooth and understandable. I will use their services again should I need them. Thank you.

Phillip and Thomas were brilliant to work with. Very responsive, effective and kind. They talked with us at every point and walked us through each stage. Wouldn’t hesitate to business with them again!

Reply from Brilliant Money
The mortgage advisor gave very useful and impartial advice, outlining several possible scenarios but then pointing out that in my particular case the offer I had from my existing lender was probably better than any others currently available across the market. This inspires confidence.

I can’t thank Sam at Brilliant enough for all his support and hard work to secure the best possible mortgage deal for me. I highly recommend Brilliant, they work tirelessly to find the right product for all situations. Great communication with frequent updates, I will definitely be a returning customer. Thanks again to Sam and Gareth - you are superstars & the outcome for me certainly was BRILLIANT!

Based in Sweden, I received fantastic non bias advice from Philip Snelling. He gave me a range of options and fully understood my situation before recommending me any products. I would highly recommend dealing with Brilliant Money.

Brilliant Money delivered a great service for us, especially given that we live outside of the UK and needed to secure a new mortgage product for our buy to let property which made it more complex. David Shuck and Tom Morris were very attentive, super responsive and as efficient as we could have wished for. They even helped prompt our lawyers several times ot keep the ball rolling - going above and beyond their remit. We are very happy with the service and highly recommend them!

We are more than happy with the service provided by Brilliant Money. They first helped us get our intially mortgage deal and dealt with eveything for us. They then contacted us after our existing Mortgage was due to expire and have again dealt with everything. The whole process has been easy for us and we've been kept updated the whole way along. Big shout out to Sam Telford who has been our adviser since day one. I would highly recommend him and Brilliant Money, thank you for all your hard work.

We contacted Brilliant Money after our existing Mortgage arranged by them was due to expire from the current rate. We were assigned David Shuck and he was brilliant from start to finish. He secured us a product that surpassed our hopes and expectations and more than met our needs.
I look forward to dealing with him again in the future. Thank you David.

Great experience using Brilliant Money, Philip kept me up to date every step of the way offering great advice and really made the process smooth, he got me a great product under unusual circumstances. Would absolutely use again and happy to recommend.

Our mortgage application was a daunting challenge, especially with my self-employment, wife with permanent job and our 10% deposit. We were on the brink of giving up hope. Philip (Brilliant Money) exceptional knowledge and dedication turned our situation around. That unexpected text message saying our mortgage was approved was pure elation.
Brilliant Money are true professionals who goes above and beyond. Philip ability to understand the complexities of self-employment and present our case effectively was instrumental in securing our mortgage.

I have been extremely pleased with the service from Brilliant Money. Philip has been absolutely fabulous at contacting me and advising me step by step with my Re-Mortgage application. He has always been at the end of the phone if I have required any updates and advice throughout the process of my application. Philip is a true professional. He is very approachable and has a sense of humor which is very welcoming in the current financial climate. I would have no hesitation in recommending Philip and his team to anyone requiring any kind of financial assistance.

I cannot recommend the team at Brilliant Money enough!
After being turned away from other mortgage advisors because of our complex situation, we were put in contact with Philip Snelling and within six months we are finally the owners of our house. Philip and his team are incredibly knowledgably in their field and their exceptional service, professionalism, and commitment to us has made it a pleasure dealing with them. Everything was explained in full and they made it so easy for us to understand. Brilliant is what they do and who they are!!

Number one waste off time, please guys stay away from this company. Absolutely they are just ridiculous.
5 month for waiting for offer sham

Reply from Brilliant Money
Really poor service. I was recommended to go to Brillant Money by First Mortgages. I spoke to Christian in November 2023 and he said he would call back in the new year (beginning of January 24). I never received a call. I then emailed several times over the next couple of months and called as I wanted to get the ball rolling. I never received an email back and was told on the phone someone will call me. They called me a few days ago ( after 5 months!) I told them I was now dealing with Haysto who have been absolutely fantastic. I would NOT recommend brilliant money and would advise people to seek support from the team at Haysto who are impeccable at communicating and providing the right help and advice.

David was thorough and responsive and took time to explain the complexities of finding the right product for me.
Rhiannon have been amazing throughout the application process. She was easy to understand and she was always there available for us with all the advice and information.
Thank you Rhiannon and Brilliant Solutions :).
What a nightmare from start to finish. Christian took four weeks to give us incorrect information, review our materials and refuse to return our calls and emails and then went on leave with no notice, first lying to his supervisor that he had not heard from us. Then we were given to Ted, who spent two weeks doing nothing and then offered us an “Islamic Mortgage” at 8.06 percent interest that he also said he knew nothing about, could not provide advice for, and further, we would have to contact them ourselves, as he could not help. And then he said—that’s all we can do. So, six weeks of utter incompetence. We have excellent credit, cashflow and standing.
I had read poor reviews online but had not believed them.
BELIEVE THEM.
Updated to advise you against the excuses below: the next mortgage company resolved this in TWO DAYS and remarked that the Brilliant people simply do not know the law.

Reply from Brilliant Money
Philip was brilliant and knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to get us the offer we needed within the boundaries of our budget. He was always available to speak and we completed the process in no time.
The full application went in about 4pm Friday 18th & the mortgage offer was issued 5pm Tuesday 22nd so we had the offer within two working days ! That's amazing.

Reply from Brilliant Money
Highly recommend. Easy to talk to and definitely know their business. Five stars from me… thank you !!
