Lucky for sure, they told us that there were significant technical problems relating to submitting an application and ticks constantly turning to crosses for no reason.

Did you have address targeting issues? For example, is it a flat with a flat number, building name and number?
These are a PITA with Nationwide and I have to ring technical and have them put a note on the case every couple of days as they refer automatically.I am a mortgage broker.

I have a Halifax (95% HTB - MG) HomeBuyer Special case (first one I've done) where the MAF was missing off my Mortgage Brain KFI, my Halifax KFI and the Mortgage App Summary.
I've told them there's no way I'm going back to the client to say he has to pay it.
Anyone else had similar?I am a mortgage broker. You should note that this site doesn't check my status as a Mortgage Adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

Have had issues before with MB omitting fees and charges but from Halifax own site?

Not on Trigold Prospector or our Halifax offers on Help To Buy - MG either.
Surprisingly or not, it was this specific product that had most of the significant technical issues during the difficult last 2 weeks..I am a Mortgage Broker
