    right well we got refused by Northern Rock. :( Shame as they had a very good rate but we should have known, their acceptance rate is really not very high.

    Don't want to ruin credit further, what to do? One more then leave it?

    It might be a better idea to try one of the Broker-type operations, they look at your details and credit history, then place you with the most suitable lender. If you don't like what they offer, you can always try another Company - When I took my loan out, the other recent searches were discounted, as I was obviously 'shopping around'.
