    You need to distinguish between those that believe that they have a good credit rating and those that actually do.

    There's a reason he's a journalist for a national newpaper and you are not.

    Hi,

    I'm a journalist working on an article about mortgages for a national newspaper. I'm looking for cases of people who have been turned down for a mortgage despite having good credentials, credit rating etc. It's important issue and hopefully if we highlight some good cases it might alert a better lender to your situation and things might change for the better.
    You can contact me directly on 02072933881 or [EMAIL="garybriananderson@yahoo.co.uk"]garybriananderson@yahoo.co.uk[/EMAIL].

    Thanks

    A journalist working for the national paper called Yahoo? Don't think so. A proper email address as a minimum would be helpful.
