Many thanks for the reply. Now here's the problem... It's already been
to court and we didn't know about it! Supposedly a Sheriff (we're in
Scotland) notified us of the court date for all of this in Oct last
year - the thing is we didn't have a call from *any* one nor have we
received *any* thing from the court or their appointed persons. 

The first thing I knew about this was in late Dec when a sheet of
paper was posted through the door notifying us of our ejection, which
will happen on the 3rd of Feb unless we can pay the arrears before
then. 

So here we are, days from eviction in a house worth double the
original mortgage and now in position where we could pay the mortgage
(or a remortgage) without any financial difficulty and the only thing
that prevents us from keeping it is the £7500 of arrears. 

Our only hope, I think, is to find a loan company (or even a loan
shark at a last resort) who can lend us the £7500 we need within the
next week or so. Then we can remortgage and easily & instantly pay off
the loan.

Does anyone have any thoughts/suggestions?

Thanks.
