    I have been following this forum for last few weeks and thought I would share my mortgage timescales as well.


    I applied with HSBC via a broker on 20th of May
    More bank statements and payslips were requested from HSBC 8th of June
    I went into HSBC branch as I was concerned the length of time this has taken on 20th of June. They rang the underwriters and my mortgage broker and said they couldn't see why it was being held up.
    Then 5pm on 20th of June, my broker received a phone call from HSBC saying I had been approved subject to valuation.
    Then today (21st) HSBC contacted my estate agent and has arranged for valuation 22nd of June.


    Hope this helps someone else who is going through similar mortgage process, as this forum has been great for us to follow last few weeks. thanks everyone :)

    Nationwide posts offers second class, so a wait of seven to ten days from the 'offer issued' text/email is not uncommon.
