A&L Mortgage Calculator and Amounts have changed

Posts: 23 Forumite
Has anyone else noticed that the mortgage borrowing amounts from A&L have dropped dramatically over the last week or so?
With our joint incomes, the A&L calculator has always indicated it would lend us roughly 238k. But now the maximum is showing as 208k.
The calculator used to take into account things like credit card debt, dependent children etc. But now only has 3 boxes to fill in. I then realised it is the Santander calculator and is exactly the same as the one on the Abbey website.
A&L were the only ones who would be willing to lend us enough for certain properties so its a shame that option has now gone.
