    Actually quite a few.

    Without knowing your personal circumstances none or all of these may be able to help.

    Victoria
    Infinity
    Gmac
    Rooftop
    Advantage
    Mortgages PLC
    Platform
    Coventry
    SPML
    Kensington
    IGroup
    First National

    All of these should be familiar to any half decent mortgage broker but a lot will depend on your circumstances as all of their criteria is different.

    For example. Even the good old Alliance and Leicester would consider you but you would have to have been discharged for 3 years.

    Best of luck.
