    Not a hope. They would have to be in a permanent role for 12 months before being considered.

    What if they are in a permanent role for 6 months and the probation period has ended ? Do all the banks have different thoughts on this ?

    Will let you know tomorrow. We're going in to meet the bank having received approval in principle. The girlfriend is in her permanent job 5 months after 1 month probation period. We were told it wouldnt be a problem as I'm the main earner and have been in the same job 9 years.
