    Hello, can I ask how you managed to get this? I have several mortgages as I am a buy to let landlord and I have had problems with them in the past. Earlier this year they changed the date of that my mortgage was due but they didn't change the date that the direct debit was taken (even though I asked them to) so essentially I was late for a few months due to their incompetence and without me realising.

    It would be useful to know how / when I could ask for compensation.

    Thanks,
