Mis-sold Mortgage Claim FAQs
Will my mortgage be affected
No, you will remain on the same mortgage as you currently are. If successful you will receive a cash compensation amount direct to yourself. This will not affect your mortgage
What happens if my lender no longer holds my mortgage documents
Your lender should only delete or destroy documentation if your mortgage has been redeemed or your mortgage account has been closed for over 6 years. However, we may still be able to help if you hold any documentation relating to your mortgage, such as the Application Letter, Offer Letter and Mortgage Statements.
I have a joint mortgage account but only wish to claim for myself
