Mortgage for Pensioner's

Is there a mortgage out there for pensioner's

My Dad is 70 and Mum is 67, I have been on the mortgage but they want to take me off.

They defitnatley do not want to do Equity Release which seems to be the only thing around

Nationwide misinformed us with incorrect info when taking out the mortgage, they said that if at anytime they could remove me and this would not effect the mortgage payments etc

So! when we go to do this they then turn round and say no, parents can keep the interest rate but would have to apply for a new mortgage and because my Dad is 70 would have to pay it back within four years, very frustrating for us all

Only other option is to put the property up for sale but at their age and with my Mum's has many health issues they would rather not go through the stress of moving etc

Any info would be gratefully received

Many thanks
