you could try a temporary stint with an umbrella, someone like Parasol (who I cant recommend highly enough). Once your with them you are effectively an employee and Parasol are only too happy to vouch you are on a good salary.

you can leave your ltd dormant for a few months then go back

Woolwich & C&G are ok as well.

Got the call from Contractor Money - I can have the mortgage I originally wanted with Woolwich through them ... even though I couldn't get it direct ... just an extra 0.1% on interest... so BBE + 1.09% (6.09%), OpenPlan.

Thanks Lads & Lasses
