Can't get a mortgage.
Comments

Finally someone who understands where im coming from! These people are pretty much saying if you have debt you can't get a mortgage and for the people saying I can't afford to pay my debt in full I JUST HAVE TODAY. So now I have nothing outstanding lets see if it helps. I very much doubt it.
So no need to be frustrated with people here. You should listen to what people are telling you, not get on your high horse about what you think people are saying. Just get rid of all but 2 accounts and get saving.Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature.

Too low a deposit, combined with lingering debts combined with shared ownership and your age mean I'm not suprised you got turned down.
Save a bigger deposit, tidy your accounts up, pay off the debts and then pay them in full every month and wait twelve months."We want the finest wines available to humanity, we want them here, and we want them now!"0 -
