The other incorrect option is to combine the circuits on one breaker.
I don't know where you live either but leaving a borrowed neutral is lazy and dangerous. In my book it should always be rectified.it is not a lazy option, don't know where you guys live but try explaining to my customers you need to add another neutral to the circuit which involves more money and maybe decorating afterwards depending on routing of cables. most customers don't want to spend the money we ask to change a consumer unit.....(they think it can all be done for £20-00)
Even when test are performed before a CU change it makes no difference anyway, the CU is getting changed so you still have the same problems.

In what way is it dangerous?
I can't believe an electrician said that.

The customer has the final say.
Or are you one of those supposed electricians that will spout regulations ad-nauseam until you browbeat the customer in to submission.
What Ponty said was perfectly valid.

Get back on your 3 week DI course son !!!
Did Ponty or I mention two supply points? One MCB for the two circuits.
Get your facts straight before pontificating on the skills of others. Walk away if you can’t uphold your argument!
