Newcastle BS

Hi,
Does anyone have any experience of getting a mortgage through Newcastle BS? Our application has been in since the end of January and whilst we have passed the credit check etc they have come back quite a few times looking for information.They don't really seem to know what they are doing and each week seem to be asking for something more.
We are FTB's applying for 95% mortgage. The mortgage advisor seems to think our application is essentially approved and they just needed a few more documents for detail.

They are usually ok as and when I have used them. They are not known for speed, although do get there in the end after a few requests for additional information.
Do not lose sight of the fact that 95% LTV mortgages are incredibly difficult to achieve and not many lenders are currently offering them.
