Process
- Call from HSBC Premier Relationship Manager | Premier Connect who went through the whole process with me from Approval to Settlement
- They use SecureMail for all documents which is clunky to say the least
- No offer from Peoples Choice to try and match rate
- They wanted me to sign manually documents and scan all pages in , the adobe scan software on my phone missed off some page numbers to the process took 3 attempts
- The HSBC Home Loan Adviser gave me their mobile number for texting which sped things up
- HSBC provided me the Discharge form for Peoples choice with the info filled out for me to sign
- The form upload process for very old and not clear , asking for Upload Special Condition with no other details
- Mortgage Adviser checked documents thoroughly before submission to Mortgage Team for Appoval
- The hold up on Settlement was mainly due to Peoples Choice Union , HSBC chased them up 3-4 times , I offered to help however a week later it was done
- Cashback was paid in 2 months , the Mortgage Adviser gave an actual date when this was to arrive
- Mortgage Adviser was available for other questions after settlement
