Today, 8.42 pm Funny how all UW partners are so defensive. Every single time.
Today, 8.33 pm That's a good reminder, thank you. Having said that, it's so easy for a client to make a complaint about something these days, I always worry. I went out of my way to schedule a recommendation zoom for tonight, outside normal working hours. She didn't turn up so I'm not going to su...
Today, 8.15 pm I do feel for clients (well some of them), but they have to realise it's the big wide world we live in.  I changed my mindset recently about this and feel like a new person, with very little stress in these situations. I used to panic, sit at my desk till midnigth to get a client's fix...
Today, 7.56 pm You're absolutely right, and that is a good reminder. In this market I find that clients scrutinise things more because they are, of course, feeling the pressure themselves, which then causes more worry for me in making sure I've not made any mistakes or caused any delays.

Today, 6.25 pm Eh? By allegedly saving 120 a month on bills they made up a 4k shortfall? That would take them a few months shy of three years to do that!? Or maybe I am just too closed minded for that to make sense to me. Anyway if you want to flog UW to clients, fill your boots. It's the other pestering, sm...
Today, 6.25 pm Agree with Aardvark too I have had people struggling for deposit and I tell them start living as if you already have a mortgage.  Say your rent is £1000 PM all other cost like food light CT Etc. are going to be the same if not more.  If you buy the property you want and your mortga...
Today, 6.07 pm Strange that you call it a pyramid scheme which is illegal in the UK and if it was it would not have FCA, OFGEN and OFTEL licences or be a FTSE250 company or pay over a million £ every month back to its customers in cashback benefits.The reason you probably get so many contacts is because Mort...
