  1. Hi, I know someone that contacted them and they were told that if they didnt speak french they would not deal with them because they only rent to french people. I find that strange because they advertise all over the web. Anyone throw any light on this. Jill
  2. Before we approach the bank, would be interested to know as long as we supply necessary proof of income, is it possible to have more than one mortgage in france if we wanted to buy a second property out there, do they take any rental income into account, i know there is the specific rule of not more than 30% of your outgoings, any advice appreciated. Thanks Jill
  3. I have read through the archives but it does not answer my particular question in full, hence - I went to my local post office to open an account filled all the forms in proof of address etc, the man was extremely helpful, the only thing we asked is that all documentation was sent to our UK address, this may have been our error, because later on in the day he contacted us and said he had phoned the Rennes office to check everything would be ok, however because we are not resident in france yet, we could not have a bank card or cheque book, but they could offer us an account with just standing order facilities. However, my farther in law approx 3/4months ago opened a similar account in the Charente area and he has cheque book and bank card although he is not resident, but he gave us french address for all docs to be sent to. The post master said they are tightening up the laws so if we are not residents we cannot have this account which I find strange I told him we have a bank card from our bank and he is going to recheck for us, any comments would be very much apprecaited. thanks Jill
