Hi angleHi,
I'm hoping that someone can explain this to me.
I'm trying to remortgage with my current mortgage provider (actually it's a TOMP), but I've failed the credit checks.
I have an account with experian and noddle, which both rate me as excellent. Just before making the application I signed up to checkmyfile.com, which again rates me as excellent.
How can my mortgage provider say that I'm a credit risk?
They seem happy to allow me to continue with my existing mortgage!
Thanks.
I understand that you've recently been refused credit check for a re-mortgage.
As you mentioned you are attempting to re-mortgage as a sole applicant, if you are no longer financially connected with your ex-partner you can 'financial disassociation’ yourself from them.
If you would like us to take a look through your Experian Credit Report with you to make sure your happy with everything that has been recorded before you re-mortgage, please get in contact with us as we would be happy to help.
All the best of luck with the re-mortgage.
Regards

Thanks James, but I've already called Experian.
They confirmed there is nothing negative on my report, no missed payments and I have the maximum credit score.
My ex is no longer showing as a financial association on my report.
Thanks again.0 -
