I have been enjoying reading through the thread here! I’m glad I’m not the only
one who was wishing away the bank holiday weekend and is refreshing the service levels page constantly . 

I applied for our mortgage a few weeks back, using a mortgage advisor. 

There was a lot of back and forth and was told that our mortgage has been approved yesterday, but not for the full amount, which was frustrating. Luckily it is still doable. We are just waiting for the official offer now, but it feels like I’ve been waiting forever!! 

Exactly the same has happened to us. Get your MA to appeal it’s worth a try we have done that but won’t hear until Monday now. We still have the offer for 3k less just waiting to see if they overturn it 

Unfortunately it was approved without the option to appeal, so no option but to go ahead with the lower amount. At least it’s not wasted money.  

I hope your appeal goes well! So annoying you have to wait over the weekend. 

Yes agreed it’s worth it when you get in the house and can start again with the saving haha! We will have to put our new bathroom on hold (or maybe not) not sure yet until Monday! Thankfully either way we know we have an offer just need that wonderful text to come through 

Oh I hope you can get that new bathroom!! I can’t wait for that text, don’t feel like I can get excited until it’s received.

Me too! Our application was submitted on the 8th. We’re going through a broker. I’ve read people mentioning a text message. Can I ask what the text is about and if we’d get one if going through a broker? Thanks

we didn’t get any text either. But we are almost at the end but now. Don’t worry about it. Your MA should keep your informed.
