  • I think there must be. Carly, you timeline is exactly still the same as mine. I applied on 22nd July and due an answer on Monday, you applied on 27th four working days later and are due an answer on Thursday, four working days later. So if I get an answer on Monday, hopefully it will be a good sign that you will get yours on Thursday and won’t have that much longer to wait.

    @maunders I was told by my MA expect 10 days after valuation. I had my value today.
  • @maunders I expect it was the valuation that was holding it up! Like @king_hins said their turnaround is 10 working days after receiving new information. So I expect you will hear the week after next! Very long for you though 😩

    Exactly one week until my EWS1 survey is done. This is the only thing Leeds are waiting for, for the valuers to send to the underwriters. I don't know how I'm going to keep myself distracted for 7 days :D

    MA said we should here from LBS either today or Monday, today’s not looking likely now so fingers crossed for Monday now. 🤞🏼

    Just heard leeds, they wanted some more bits. Back to the queue I go I guess.. did anybody ring them after there valuation to find out if the valuation came back as expected?

  • Ah boo @King_hins! So frustrating to go to the back of tHe queue. I didn’t ring but my broker did chase and find out that valuation came back fine.
