Error on mortgage offer

Options
Can anyone help please.

Our mortgage offer was issued with an error last week. The mortgage broker split my first name up thereby giving me two middle names. The mortgage offer was issued with that error. The lender natwest asked for my driving license and says it will be a change on their system and reissue of mortgage offer Has anyone experienced this. Will it cause problems. So worried. Thanks in advance.

    It should only cause a problem if doing the credit check with the correct name is unsatisfactory.

    You would have to be very unlucky for that to cause an issue

  • Thanks Betmunch for your reply. Much appreciated

    The full name is an alias on my credit report so I'm hoping that the information will bethe same whatever name they credit check. .

    Do you hold accounts in different but similar names?
  • Yes Thrugelmir. Most of my accounts are in the short version of my name but a few are in the long full version

    Perhaps they'll need to recredit check you then. If these records are not entirely connected together.
