Although I understand entirely why the procedures are in place (to safeguard against the banks cocking up again by lending no-questions-asked) just a pain that they've gone the other way and common sense has no role to play in it all.

Some banks and finance houses did. Those that did either went under, merged with a financially stronger outfit or closed for new business. The main players in the market never really let loose. Despite the media coverage of events. While much is written about tightening up. In reality the clock is being wound back around 25 years to when sanity last reigned.
