The reason givn was along the lines of " local checks showed you had a child which you did not disclose on your application form, therefore I am refusing you application". Not word for word but very close.

I understand the reason for refusal, what pisses me off is this. Why bother phoning us if they already knew, my wife never denied it over the phone and explained it. If he was going to refuse it why bother phoning?

Letter will be drafted tomorrow and sent via courier.
