    If they had a charge placed on your property and the debt is now settled they should remove this charge and confirm to you in writing that this has been done. I believe that you can also then check with the land registry to ensure that this charge is definitely removed otherwise this will cause problems if you ever try and sell your house.

    I don't know about claiming back any charges, I suspect that these were covered in the agreement you signed, but this does not necessarily mean that they are enforceable.

  • How do i know if theses charges are enforceable ??

    You might want to try posting on the reclaiming charges section of the forum or doing a search within that section for blemain to see if anyone else has queried this previously.
