hey guys does anyone have any idea how long it takes to get a written offer from the Abbey once a survey has been done. Or if people dont have experiance of the Abbey what about other lenders?
For everthing else there's mastercard.
For clampers there's Barclaycard.

    I also got my mortgage form the Abbey. Unfortunately the first property we were buying fell through but I had the mortgage offer in 3 days. On the second property it took about 2 weeks as there were issues with the survey.

    thanks, the reason i was asking is because the women buying our house had the survey done about 8 days ago and we are just waiting for her solicitor to receive the mortgage offer which is holding things up, going to get her to chase it today!
