They call me about 3-4 times a day, everyday. The only time I get some peace is at the weekend. Pretended that I had made an enquiry to re-mortgage. I've asked them to remove my details but falling on deaf ears. I checked out their website and found that they charge an extortionate fee for their service. Why would I want to give them 5 grand to arrange my mortgage. Avoid at all costs. Preying on the vulnerable.
