  • @hollybryan2013 yeah I was told they had everything they needed. My broker is from a company but he has been really good and got everything up front. The only thing they came back with was the declaration to sign and then the Questions. 

    Ooh I see now, so when you put in your application you sent in documents and was told they have everything they needed? 

    And then they came back with for you to sign declaration form and then the questions? 

    If so this is how my case has gone too, so fingers crossed, an offer will be issued soon! 🤞 

    just hope no more questions!

    Congrats to all that have had their offer. Our valuation was done on 26th and all has come back ok. Our initial assessment went on 21st so we’re expecting to hear if they need any documents by 7th September. I’m really hoping they’ve got everything they need as my husband is working away until mid September. 
  • How long did it take for the hard copy of the offer to arrive? So was told yesterday we had a offer, can I expect it tomorrow maybe? As it hasn’t come today. X

    Mine came the day after i was told i got the offer. If you ring them they will send you the copy to print and return. In the email they stated that we could of signed, scanned and returned via email if we wanted to.
  • Our broker submitted our application at the beginning of June, we have sent 2 sets of pay slips, answered a few questions and as far as I know they have done the valuation but we have had nothing confirmed yet. 3 months is a ridiculous amount of time. Had we not spent about 2500 on fees and house extras I would be at the point where i dont care anymore. Will never use them again that's for sure.
  • And I thought ours was long!!!
  • I know we are an existing customer aswell, 12 years of on time payments, we were not furloughed, didn't have a payment holiday and have 25% deposit
