May also have missed out on a couple of qualifying years for the state pension as well, depending on just how low the payment was...

Maybe call up your hr first thing tomorrow too, to see if they can provide some other documentation that backs up the BACS you receive and take this with you in your meeting with Santander0

Little update.
I've (well my mortgage advisor) has sent Santander my Contract of Employment along with mt Apprenticeship Agreement. He says that although it is highly unlikely they will change their decision, these documents prove that we were not trying to purposely fraud them.
He also said that we shouldn't have any problems with a different lender. We just seem to have been unlucky with the under-writer at Santander!

I think most companies only issue electronic payslips (the last 3 companies I've worked for have anyway), i submitted downloaded pdf copies and it was accepted

Hopefully their decision might be swayed with your documentations, if not speak to your broker again and find out what the consequences are in putting in another application with another lender so soon after this one (soft checks or hard checks done by Santander etc)
