Commenting on these results Nick Baxter – Director – Mortgage Promotions said, “We are delighted that so many of our registered users have recognised the benefits of trading with Bank of Scotland through their electronic system. We know the Bank of Scotland system works well and we are pleased the mortgage writers who work with us think so too. These results show that mortgage writers are now embracing technology which is a ‘win win’ situation for all parties. Lenders receive applications in a more cost effective way, mortgage writers become more efficient and consumers benefit from faster processing times."

We have been impressed with their enthusiasm to help their registered users trade with their lending partners more cost effectively and efficiently. A massive number of their users are able to add further value to their client relationship by using our system."
