Paying product or valuation fees by credit or debit card

We’ve made some changes to the way you and your clients pay product fees (if being paid upfront) or valuation fees (if charged):

  • On Introducer Internet > Full Mortgage Application > Submission form > Fee payments screen has been updated to show the fees that will be charged. Instead of capturing payment details, we’ll tell you that you or your client will need to phone us on 0800 085 1390 to pay the valuation fee or product fee.
  • Once you’ve submitted the application, if fees have been charged, we’ll display a message to tell you the telephone number and reconfirm that we won’t be able to process the application until the payment is made.
