Getting a loan after mortgage completion

Hi,
I'm looking for a bit of advice, I have just recently taken out a mortgage with Barclays.
When Barclays accepted my mortgage application they said that I needed to settle some existing commitments which totalled about £25000 within 30 days of my mortgage going live, which I have done.
I now unfortunately need to buy a new car as my car has just been written off. My question is if I borrow the money will it have any consequences with Barclays even though my mortgage has gone through and we are now living in our new house.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

doubt it, but if you used a MB chat with them about it.
The condition of the mortgage offer was that you cleared certain debts within 30 days, not that you could never take out credit again....that’s how my brain sees it anyway.0 -

That's the way I was looking at it, surely now the mortgage is complete they wouldn't even know that I will have taken out a different loan, as I can't see them carrying out a credit check after completion.

it’s not like you’re suddenly buying a Ferrari (or are you?! 😂), you’re simply replacing a vehicle which has been written off, and no, I can’t see them running another credit check either.0 -
