    Still waiting valuation was 27th :'(
    Getting too anxious now. Apparently they are still awaiting bank statements that I sent back in march! And it's got lost.... 
    But surely they wouldnt have done the valuation otherwise??

    My valuation is now with NatWest.
    Im hoping it will be days not weeks until they make a decision! 
    Nothing at all. I submitted my application on 23 March and almost 11 weeks nothing happens..... My MA must be sick of me by now but they can't do anything about the valuation. I was told two weeks ago that G&L will contact me to book a physical valuation..... nobody has called

    Finally got my physical valuation done for Barclays, been waiting since early March. My mortgage offer came through today. However, I need to change to the product to get the latest rate, so still a bit more waiting. Hopefully that won't be a problem.

    Congrats!!!!!!!!! I am really happy for you! Your nightmare is over and hopefully I can get my mortgage offer too. I am going to call L&G first thing in the morning and find out which surveyor they will allocate me to.

    My valuation was on Thursday, I called Natwest but was said that report was not received. I called e.surv and L&G and both told me that they had submitted the report on Thursday. I recalled Natwest and lady double-checked and said that report was not transferred from L&G to NatWest’s system. After few minutes she was able to get access to it. It was written that an EWS1 form is required to evaluate the flat as it is in a building above 18m. I emailed EA and was able to get the from within 15 minutes. I have sent it to Natwest, e.surv and L&G. Not sure why surveyor did not ask it directly to EA when he met him on Thursday. 
    L&G said the EWS1 form is not enough. They are looking for a Fire Risk Assessment compliant with the Regulatory Reform Order (Fire Safety) 2005. I see a FRA  BAFE SP205 dated October 2018 in the building management pack so I have sent this. Anybody with a similar experience?
    No written confirmation of what L&G needs as documentary evidence to do this evaluation, despite me chasing daily and Natwest promising to forward the request. I have logged a formal complaint yesterday covering their incompetence and poor service.
