Having been to halifax today just to inquire about what they could offer as a mortage, i was surprized to hear that they could infact offer me nothing? Even though we earn a regular income and have permenant placements and proof of all earnings we were still turnned away! I understand that alot of what we earn is seen as 'allowances' but no one wants to touch us. Having come away from halifax deflated we seeked advice from a local independent finacial advisor who dismissed us straight away! Has anyone else had such a problem? Can anyone lead me to the answers? Andie

I placed one of these a while ago with Northern Rock.
It does depend on the case as a whole though ie deposit size, credit history, other earned income etc.0
