hi this may have been covered elsewhere in the site but any help and advice would be appreciated. for the last 5years my friend has been staying in my flat, and giving me money towards the mortgage.
its a very relaxed agreement, we havent bothered with a lease or anything for the last few years.
i moved away for work reasons but still get my mail sent to the lat, as i said were pals and its all relaxed,
however he tells me the bank were at the door asking about our arrangement, how much he pays ect, now i realise i was meant to inform the bank he was staying there, i gen didnt know i was to do that,
before i go in and see them, am i in serious bother? please help, getting a bit worried here
