    Might be better to try your broker.

  • Skipton was approved and I got a formal mortgage offer the other day.

    It's valid for 6 months, so does this mean I'm safe to start applying for credit again (i.e. credit cards or bank accounts - specifically more of those Clydesdale incentive ones!)? Or is there any chance of more credit checks?

    No. No new credit applications until after completion.
