"I thought I was rich,but I was only dreaming"

Mail online: 'Scrooge' RBS hits homeowners with Christmas crackdown on borrowing

Mr Mason, 58, from Hockley, Essex, said: 'It is a completely miserly act at the worst possible time of year. They are acting like Scrooge for no reason and have announced this completely out of the blue so that all of a sudden £90,000 of money I thought I had available has been taken away.

"Retired banker John Mason has been told his borrowing for his four-bedroom house will be cut overnight from £199,950 to just £105,200. He has been paying back his mortgage with RBS since 1999."

Miserly bank stops retiree from borrowing 200k against their house shocker. They must have taken his former occupation into consideration.
