hi all
just checked credit score on experian 894
paid all bills over last 5 years mortgage/ phone / car loan / credit cards not missed a payment however had one credit card that was not on a direct debit and i never got time / bothered to go to the branch to pay it i just waited for them to phone and paid it over the phone there and then. problem is just looked and they have hit me with 6 late payments (ooops) on my credit report.
will this hamper my mortgage chances?
thanks in advance

OK and what is your current situation - first time buyer, remortgage, etc.?
How much deposit do you have saved up and what property values are you thinking of?
Also when you say last three years can you be a bit more specific about how recent?
