What an incredible service. I had the pleasure of working with Niamh. From start to finish, she was so patient and is a true wealth of knowledge as I went through my mortgage hunt/journey/adventure.Most importantly, Niamh was the one who made that phonecall we all want, she got it done. A phone call no one would forget.Thank you Niamh.

Seamus Phelan helped myself and my husband set up life insurance recently and I honestly can not recommend him enough. His knowledge and expertise is fantastic and nothing was too much trouble. He made it all so easy to understand and really fit the policy to our needs. We can't recommend Seamus and LowQuotes enough. I would give Seamus more then 5 stars if that was an option. Happy Christmas to everyone there.

I recently decided to purchase a property and knew I needed guidance as I hadn’t a clue what I needed to do! I found lowquotes online and decided to request a call. Straight away I knew this is who I needed to go with and I got given Niamh as a contact. Niamh was amazing and sorted my application for a mortgage and gave me every piece of information that I would need to gather along with some financial tips. I fell in love with a house and once again Niamh was there for the whole process. She was calm, clear, friendly and very organised. I know have completed the completions and straight away she put in a reminder to call me once my fixed mortgage would be finished! I couldn't recommend LowQuotes more to anyone they were great especially Niamh.
Response from the owner: Hey Sha,Thank you so much for your detailed and glowing review! We’re thrilled to hear about your fantastic experience with Niamh.
