would deposit offset mortgage debt in financial institution collapse

lucky I wasnt reading this before the 100k guarantee came in :eek:.

I was working on the 'natural justice' principle (naieve I know) that if the bank went bust and lost my deposit I would only owe them the net borrowings. Havent an official offset mortgage but effectively the same from a cash point of view.

Hard to see a judge ruling you owe them in full/allowing them to re-possess your house after they lost your deposit (again probably naieve).
