Win £4,000 on a sporting experience

An iPad will be awarded as prizes to two runners-up. All mortgage applications are valid to qualify brokers to enter and every time a new application is submitted, another ticket will be entered into the draw.

Jule Wilson, spokesman at Northern Rock, said: “Northern Rock is a commercial organisation which must promote its products, services and brand in the market place in which it operates. This promotion is designed to generate mortgage business for Northern Rock through intermediaries - which is entirely consistent with generating returns for taxpayers.

“We are mindful of our responsibilities under Government ownership and only consider those advertising and promotional channels that deliver a high return on investment and good strategic fit."
