  • Ok, thanks, I feel better already. :smiley:
  • Have I offended anyone Stan?

    Apologies IAKW! - just gets on my nerves sometimes when a ISP's homepage carrying loads of sponsored links is taken as a serious source of mortgage sourcing, and sometimes it rubs me up the wrong way!

    Nothing personal-

    I am a fee charging WoM Mortgage broker.
    I now no longer give information and opinion within the Mortgage boards, because a number of posters who, having approached me professionally, agreed my fee-which has been been made very clear at the outset, taken my advice (normally cancelling a [home visit] meeting at short notice) have then approached one of the fee-free brokers on here to arrange the very same deal I have advised.
    Whilst I totally concur with the ethos of "money saving"- abusing the goodwill of a professional who provides a quality service is taking it too far! :mad:
  • Thanks for the apology SS.

    I see what you mean now with the sponsored links!! Maybe I should give it more thought next time. I was just trying to help with some sound advice. Maybe I should have just advised like everyone else to use an IFA.
