Mortgage unsure

Hi

I went through a broker to get a mortgage. On my exprian report there is a default (satisfied) and some satisfied pay day loans dating back to July last year he said he wouldn't be able to help but referred me to a specialist broker who said only if I had a 20% deposit. I only have a 15% deposit.

Anyhow by chance I applied to Leeds Building Society and they offered me a decision in principle for slightly more money and they said they have check Equifax which doesn't list the pay day loans but does list the default (2015) I have to submit some payslips, bank statements and utility bills I have all these and I will be probably asking for less than I applied for does this mean I'm good to go or will I get rejected once I've fully applied.
