Through the new service customers and advisers will be sent updates directly to their mobile phone at key stages of the application process.
Amanda Docherty, communications manager at Scottish Widows Bank, said: Buying a home can be a stressful experience and customers want to be kept up-to-date on developments with their mortgage application as soon as they happen. Our new text messaging service will offer customers and their financial adviser an additional and convenient channel for receiving updates.
