Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 137 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the service, staff, and customer service, highlighting their helpfulness, efficiency, and proactive approach. Many appreciate the smooth and streamlined processes, with particular mention of quick response times and effective communication from various teams, including underwriters and BDMs. Conversely, some people were dissatisfied with the product and response time. A few customers reported issues with product transfers being overly complicated or experiencing delays in mortgage redemption due to staff training. There were also concerns about unprofessional and patronizing communication from an adviser during a call, and in one instance, a very poor service experience during a product transfer, leading to a client being charged a higher rate.

A very efficient Lender and expressed their ability to adjust their stance to meet the clients needs. Their efficiency compares to a McClaren pit stop. A great BDM who supports us. Great to work with.

Horrible company

Horrible company. My Father had 2 B2L loans with Landbay. Sadly, he died and all his property was left to my Mother. She is old an poorly herself, all the probate was done and the flats were legally hers. Despite sending Landbay all the documentation and continuing to pay the loan, Landbay refused to speak to her or her solicitor, they then stopped the DD and refused to take funds to keep up the payments on the loan. They insisted they could only speak to my Father (deceased!). They then sent letters giving my Mother (yes they identified her as the owner in this respect!) ultimatums to take action to recover the whole amount of the loans. In the end she was forced to pay the loans off in cash (from the proceeds of selling her home) in order to prevent repossession, as Landbay would not wait for her to refinance. It took 3 days to pay them due to their terrible customer service. Fully intend to report them to the banking ombudsman and am contacting the media with the story. If this is a company that can treat a grieving widow, who kept up her payments, like this, how will they treat you? You will be thinking, must be more to this, two sides to the story etc., nope, this is how my Mum was treated, no sympathy, no common sense, unreasonably, all completely avoidable and unnecessary. They left my Mother frightened and anxious, just after the loss of her husband, and whilst she was gravely ill herself. Bullies and scoundrels, that is what they are.

Dear Paul,

We're very sorry for your loss and for the distress your mother experienced. We recognise how difficult this situation must have been, and we're sorry that our service did not meet expectations at such a sensitive time.

In cases where a borrower passes away, we're required to follow legal processes, including waiting for the Grant of Probate before we can act on mortgage accounts. That said, we acknowledge there were delays and communication issues on our side, and we regret any additional stress this may have caused.

We're reviewing this case internally to learn from it and prevent similar issues in future. If you're open to it, we'd like to discuss this further with you. Please email us at enquiries@landbay.co.uk so we can investigate this matter directly.

Sincerely,

The Landbay Team

Ltd company BTL Purchase

Recently did a Ltd company BTL Purchase for a client.

The BDM Rahead was very informative and knew the criteria very well.

The underwriter stayed in contact throughout and we had a direct line that helped speed the process up.

We faced some challenges with the solicitors towards the end, and again Rahead was able to step in and help us to completion.

End result.

Very happy client!!

I would definitely use Landbay again 😀
