    He has worked out the affordability etc but be aware that the score and credit search when carried out can affect the income multiple that Barclays can give you

    Yeah, I know that. I saw the screen he was looking at for affordability etc and they use the EXPerian credit score. Over 698 you get 5 x your salary, below 698 4 x you salary.Other criterias were, no CCJs or Defaults and no more than 2 late payments in the last 3 years and also no more than 2 house moves in the last 3 years. I've got none of those.

    I've just signed up to the experian for the 30 day trail. It's waiting to be approved but once it is I'll pay for the credit score report and check if it's above or below 698.
