  • I've read on a few forums that nationwide seem to be quite behind? 😳 I'm on pins!! Just want to know where we stand. 
    I've had an email from experian today to say 'castlight' have done a soft search on me, has any one else experienced that? Haven't even had a hard search done yet.

    7/04 DIP from Nationwide 
    12/04 offer accepted
    20/04 Application sent to Nationwide
    20/04 Text confirming application received
    27/04 NW requested additional pages of our proof of deposit 

    Not heard anything else yet but assuming because of the bank holidays it’s going to take a while!
    Update: 

    04/05 Received this text: Hi, Nationwide here. We've received the valuation report for your mortgage application. We'll review this and be in touch if we need any more information.

    Fingers crossed we’ll get a decision next week!

    Have my fingers crossed for you!! 

    Did you recieve a text to say a valuation had been booked?

    I've still not heard anything but mine didn't go in until the 25th. So it's just a waiting game I guess. Hopefully hear something soon.

    Thank you! 

    We didn’t get one to say it had been booked so we were quite surprised.

    Good luck with your application!!
