I'd ask specificy why - it might be something other than it's above a shop -

Agree - it does sound as though the "flat above a shop" issue isn't the issue.

Unfortunately, you're not entitled to any answers. The survey was done for the bank, but you paid for it via the application fee. No harm in trying, though.

RBS will lend on flats above shops, so in theory the flat is fine, it's the practice where you have the problem. There's flats above shops and flats above shops. RBS rely on the valuer to tell them if they will sell it quickly if they come into possession, because they just don't know what every individual flat is like in real life.
