    Hi,

    Can you expand a little on the extent of your bad credit history?

    Thanks

    2 ccjs from 4 years ago which are unsattisfied for me and a few missed payments in the last few years and a few missed payments for her.

    have you caught up with the missed payments? any defaults? how much were the individual ccjs for and when were they registered? What kind of a mortgage product are you looking for? fixed? tracker? what are you future plans?

    yes all the missed payments were caught up and the ccjs were for 1200 and 600 and are registered, as for the mortgage a fixed for 3-5 years would suit best to get the rating back u[p then change after. the ccjs are not sattisfied.
