Ah that's great news Cookie! Congrats hopefully you'll be able to join the Waiting to exchange thread soon 🤪

We have a good news story. We applied via an excellent MB on 30th April, the valuation was done on-site 11th May. We had to provide proof of deposit, but this was our fault as we hadn't rounded all the money up, which we provided 12th May. MB advised went to underwriters 2pm yesterday. No other questions and approval was 10.30am today. MB gets the offer electronically, so get this today (but it is also posted by Santander). This was on 40% LTV but on interest only, so really pleased to get this through. What a stressful time it causes! Good luck to everyone else in their journey.

How's everyone getting on? MA told
us the valuation has been done and everything is satisfactory and that we're just waiting on the offer now. However we know we've still got a lot of painful waiting to see if our buyers are approved their mortgage too, since they only applied a few days back it's going to be painfully long!! X

Still nothing
MA says service levels are two days - ours passed to underwriters on Friday 14th May 

we had the valuation on 4th May!

wonder what on earth is going on and have such a bad feeling. Checking my emails constantly!!

Hi everyone
I have an FTB 90% application in at the moment via a broker. Submitted on 06/05, hard search done 06/05, valuation done on 13/05, valuation back at asking price 14/05,  additional documents requested and submitted 18/05
I got one email from Santander this whole time when the application was submitted saying it had been received. I have since received nothing directly, only questions via my broker.
Did any of you guys still get email/text updates if going through a broker?
I am assuming it is with the underwriters now but not sure whether I would get a notification myself saying this. 
Any info would be appreciated, thank you

We are using a broker and just get updates
had one email from Santander on 19 April when our full application went in. Nothing else!

Hi All
We got a DIP on 6th May, applied in full via our broker on the 7th May, had valuation on 14th May (last Friday) the suspense of this is insane I just want to know if it’s going to be accepted or not! Because we have done it via a broker we don’t get the online updates, generally how soon after valuations does it take to hear back? Many thanks.
