    I am talking YEARS not months........nobody would ever get a mortgage with only 5 months employment history/proveable income
  • Would the parent, guarantor thing be worth considering??
  • Vigilant, I've got my mortgage, and all I was asked was to show my last 3 payslips, 1 of which is monthly pay, 2 were weekly. I was then asked for my last bank statement, which covered the same month as my wageslips at the time...?
    Unless Nationwide have contacted my employers??
    And to add to that I've been with the company just over 7 years, and only 1 month of that in my current position? Before that I was just part time...ie the 7 years
