            They got a reaction, which probably means they worked. Why rise to it?
 I answer every false claim once then ignore after that. I know most if not all of them are incapable of putting together a reasoned debate/argument but it is important to me to at least give them a single chance per issue.:exclamatiScams - Shared Equity, Shared Ownership, Newbuy, Firstbuy and Help to Buy.

            Oh look an attack on me by someone who thinks he knows my situation better than myself.
 Dan I think you may of credit checked the wrong Brit 1234, my bank has told me I have an excellent credit rating. See I have every transaction registered to my parents house including all my bank accounts going back 2 decades despite living in various addresses in London. I am registered to vote there. I paid off my student loans, I have always paid off my overdraft. To improve it further I got a registered mobile phone, broad band, dongles, paypal all to my parents house. Also no black marks at all.
 Here is a guide how to get a good credit rating from MSE.

 So I am not screwed Dan I am in the best position to buy with a great credit rating, 30% deposit, costs, furniture sorted and a good well paid stable job.
 Your put down tactics have failed.:rotfl: I couldn't be in a better position.
 Did you know that it's a criminal offence to put false information on the electoral register?
 Aren't you in the police force?

 yep, all above board then - i'm sure they'd have no problems with any of that if they found out about it. - i'm sure they'd have no problems with any of that if they found out about it. 
 i got stopped in my car by the police in london for a routine check when i was young, and i'd left my drivers license registered to my parents address despite living in london. when i told the officer this, he raised his eyebrows and asked me if i knew that i could be fined up to £1000 for that. luckily he let me off and told me to get it sorted asap.

 Err, isn't this a bit much? As I had no problem getting a mortgage in London despite moving around a lot (think I was moving every 6 months at one point) and moved everything, bank accounts, electoral register etc, whenever I moved. BTW your address is no longer factored in to credit scoring so it wouldn't really make any difference if you had every transaction registered at your parent's house as the address is irrelevant.
 I do find it odd you're still tied to your parents address a lot btw - when I was gone I was gone.So I am not screwed Dan I am in the best position to buy with a great credit rating, 30% deposit, costs, furniture sorted and a good well paid stable job.
 30% deposit on what? Is this what you *think* your 30% deposit should be of, or what it actually is?0

 LOL
 Brits "30% deposit" relies on house prices falling by 50% from where they were a few years ago, and Silver rising to $500 an oz.
 Whereas in reality, house prices in Brits area have risen 50% form where they were a few years ago, and Silver has fallen 40% since he bought in. :rotfl:“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.

 The media is being a little over the top and sensationalist in the way it is reporting these small falls, what are they going to be like when/if the falls become even worse.0
