Land registry delays

Options
We are in real despair as the property we are buying was not registered although deeds and a OS map of the property are available .
Our vendors solicitor made an error on the first registration omitting the back garden.
Land registry advised to do an amendment on an expedited request as our buyers had to exchange.
This was then rejected contrary to the advice of land registry initially and vendors solicitor was told to now submit an adverse possession.
All documents relating to the property go back to 1920's

This again was done on expedited request as our buyers have to vacate their property 7th December

We now find out last Tuesday that a site visit is necessary ..needless to say our buyers won't be able to change their completion date and are trying to find somewhere to stay urgently.

We have also had to re-arrange my husbands defibrillator monitor to be switched back to our original hospital which can possibly leave him un monitored ( we are moving out of district)

We were assured by land registry that they understand the urgency but still no date has been arranged for the site visit.

All this means our buyers and ourselves can't be home for xmas which we all never thought the LR would take so long especially when all docs were available plus statement of truth, plus a Current OS map so not sure why another OS is needed.

Could someone please help as we are all at our wits end .. at least a date for a site visit would be helpful, but the LR still hasn't arranged even though the applications were all expedited with agreement ... I have asked direct but LR state they can't talk to me about specific applications and to ask solicitor , but we have and they have tried to get an answer with no luck . Could someone please help us ??
