    Still waiting on TRS increase?

    I've emailed ICS this morning to ask. The annoying thing is I skip May and June on my mortgage as I pay it over 10 months, so I wont now see the extra TRS till July. Probably a blessing in disguise mind you!!!

    Payment holidays - conditions

    I will need, very soon to convert the attic of my two bed house to give an extra bedroom. Would my bank consider this a good enough reason to give me a mortgage break? I've not had a break before, and have been paying my mortgage with no issues for past 5 years.
