Alex at mortgage chain was amazing and went above and beyond to assist us. He made sure we were able to complete on our specified date and sorted through any complications quickly and efficiently. Would definitely recommend him and his company.

First Home !!

Alex has been fantastic throughout our whole Mortgage process.
He has been available for every call, text and email I have made and has supported me honestly and practically at every decision. He has made the process of getting our first mortgage as smooth as possible and has been more of a friend than an advisor during the process.
Even once we had completed on our house, Alex still always comes back to me on any question I have and is still advising me on my future queries.
I would strongly recommend his service and Mortgage Chain and will continue to use Alex as my Mortgage Advisor throughout any house move or re-mortgage.
Brilliant Advisor and individual.

Top Class!

Alex was absolutely fantastic to deal with again! I have dealt with him previously on other mortgage related situations and cannot recommend him highly enough.
Often these things can be tense and frustrating at times however Alex has always made me feel calm and at ease from start to finish of any deal. He is always honest, friendly and professional, a real help.
Would 100% recommend the services.

Very unprofessional; Stay away

I would not recommend this company. Last year when I bought my house, the property agents who dealt with the house recommended them. The experience was not great; the principal advisor Alex, who apparently is the managing director of the company as well. He was very poor in communicating the progress, if I made any query he would not be very prompt in responding. It took a long time to get the documentation right. With lot of hiccups the deal somehow got completed.

This year I had to revise a buy to let mortgage for my other house. I though to give him another chance. The experience was even worse. Despite spending nearly 2 months, the advisor could not even complete the requisite paperwork promptly. The lender asked for some documents which I had already provided to him, but they were not provided with the application to the lender, hence underwriter delayed the processing. One day I got a letter from the bank that my application is closed. When I tried to contact the advisor he was away on holidays. I tried contacting his office, there was no response. I had to myself contact the lending bank to find out the matter and I was advised that the application was filed as a solo application instead of joint application hence it was closed. When I wrote a text message to the advisor about this, he send a very unpleasant and unprofessional reply making all kind of ridiculous and obscene remarks against me, as if he was in an in-abbreviated state of mind. He abused me for having contacted the lender myself. When I tried to contact his company to ask my case to be moved to another advisor and to make a complaint against him, I realized that there was no process in place for making any complaint as the receptionist could not provide me the names of any other higher person in the company. She said that she would get back to me after speaking to the other director about transferring my case to somebody else. Within minutes the next thing I get is a text message from the same advisor / director that he has dumped my case and not willing to work any further for me. After wasting 2 months I had to start from scratch and could not file another application with the same lender due to an existing application, which was neither closed by him nor the bank would deal with me directly due to a broker filed application.

I would never advise to work with this company. Very unprofessional.

Hi Rahul Dubey, thank you for providing our thirteenth review. We found the experience positive overall for the company as we used this situation for our staff as a case study to identify clients we would prefer not to work with, and I am sorry you fell into this category. Very best of luck in the future with your mortgage requirements.

Alex from Mortgage Chain

Alex from Mortgage Chain was my mortgage advisor for the property I recently purchased. Being a non-UK resident with no UK citizenship and not owning a property anywhere made this case for every other broker impossible, but not for Alex. He went out of his way to find me a deal and guided me through the whole process - from discussing potential properties, getting in touch with the seller's agency and a solicitor to sorting out a competitive buildings insurance and advising on further steps. I am so happy I came across him and I hope this is just a first of the properties we worked on together. He never failed me, always replied and turned out to be a very trustworthy partner to work with. I would recommend him any time.

I'm very happy with the service provided by Mortgage Chain Ltd. I'm (was!) first time buyer knowing very little about the whole process. Alex Kerr the broker has been very helpful, listened to my requirements and presented options that closely matched the desirable mortgage. He kept me informed at every stage of the process and was always responding to my ad-hoc queries. He kept the communications between the agent and myself to minimise delays. Great service!

We have been referring our buyers and sellers to Mortgage Chain for over a year now and have found Mortgage Chain very consistent in terms of their speed of response to the mortgage referrals sent through for advice to clients and overall very professional. We would have no hesitation in recommending Mortgage Chain for Estate Agents to introduce their mortgage clients for unbiased and experienced information and help throughout the mortgage process

STOP! You've found the company you need...

If you want a company that values customer service, communication and reliability, then look no further. I cannot fault how Alex from Mortgage Chain handled my case. He was reassuring when I needed it, attentive, helpful and always available! The process I went through was not an easy one, but at no point did I ever think that Mortgage Chain Ltd were not pulling their weight or were slacking off. The expertise they have and the advice they gave was invaluable and I now have an amazing new forever home because of them! It is without hesitation that I recommend them wholeheartedly!

Our first home..

Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish.
Alex was able to advise from the get go. He was always available to answer any call, email or text throughout the working week and weekends. Nothing I asked or needed was too much for him to provide.
Alex is personable and tailored the whole experience to our needs. He was able to explain everything in a way that we could understand and always advised when a situation could go wrong before it inevitably did.
He was the back bone in receiving our mortgage and we couldn't of completed the whole process without his support!
Thank you so much for helping us secure our dream home, even with the lender bumps along the way!

Excellent Service!

We recently bought a property and Alex provided an exceptional service every step of the way. Right from our first meeting, Alex kept us informed on a regular basis and guided us through various mortgage options, related paperwork, extra documents needed by the bank and surveys. Got us a good deal on home insurance and life cover as well. We must have emailed him scores of times and he responded promptly to all our queries. We will be happy to recommend him anytime.

Goes the extra mile...

I have utilised the services of Alex 2/3 times. He is skillful in finding the best solutions and rates. He is also helpful and assists with administrative aspects of the process which he is not really obliged to do. This alleviates the burden in what can be a tedious process these days as lenders become more demanding. Thus far he is the best broker I have used.

A* Mortgage Advisor

Alex from Mortgage Chain helped me find an excellent deal as a first time buyer with a much lower interest rate from a high street bank than anything I could see advertised elsewhere.

Alex was extremely knowledgeable & informative, he kept us updated throughout the application process and I know he had mine and my partners best interests at heart at all times.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Alex and the Mortgage Chain team and will be using him again in the future.
