    my friend sent FD some ID certified by the same accountant that did mine. They declined my friends saying the person hadn't been chartered long enough to certify it yet accepted mine a month before. I do wonder what they're playing at...
    They are doing the same daft stuff most mortgage lenders do at one time or another.

    Fortunately FD record all their calls so it should be easy to prove (if they charge you) that they gave you duff information.
