    enters into, or makes a further advance on, a regulated mortgage contract; or

MCOB 12.1.4RRP

The requirements in MCOB 12.4 (Arrears charges) and MCOB 12.5 (Excessive charges) will continue to apply to a firm after a regulated mortgage contract has come to an end following the sale of a repossessed property. References in this chapter to 'customer' will include references to a former customer as appropriate.

MCOB 12.1.5GRP

The FSA will expect a firm to ensure that charges made to a customer arising from the sale of a repossessed property and charges arising in relation to a mortgage shortfall debt are not excessive and are subject to the same considerations as apply with respect to arrears charges under this chapter.
