Barclays AIP

I have received an AIP from Barclays after being declined by a few other lenders, is this a good sign or do Barclays just give these out without really looking at credit files?

Well they wouldn't give me one so they are at least a little bit fussy. Why do you suspect they didn't look into your records? If you bank with them they wouldn't need to particularly.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on Debt Free Wannabe and Old Style Money Saving boards.

If you are being declined by other lenders you should probably use a broker as an AIP is no guarantee you will get that mortgage or even that you meet their criteria.0

I will certainly be using a broker when the time comes. I was just wondering if the AIP was a positive sign or is the Barclays AIP just not as thorough basically.0
