Is the Removal of Exonerated Charges on Title Deeds Mandatory?

Are (asset management) companies (or anybody else) legally obliged to remove charges from Title Deeds once they have been exonerated?
Having recently cleared our mortgage, we paid to check to see whether the bank had released their charge (which they had) but we noticed other charges, acknowledged by a particular asset management company as exonerated or extinguished back in 2009, still remained.
We've written to the company, again, enclosing a copy of their own acknowledgement letter requesting the immediate removal of their charges and also a redrawing of a land plan that should now exclude our property but as yet three months later they still remain.
We've had some correspondence with the Land Registry who have been helpful but understandably impartial.

Received some formal advice the other day and apparently it is not compulsory for others to remove their charges from the deeds, even if they no longer apply or are no longer valid; so guess who's left to pay for it instead.0
