AIP - hard search

We got an aip from Barclays on the 30/9 and submitted a full application on 1/10 via our broker. I received an email alert from my credit file on the 30/9 to advise that Barclays had completed 2 searches, one soft affordability and one hard search. Is this not unusual for an AIP? I thought they ran a hard search only once you had submitted the full application? Just wondered why this is different - as their website says soft search for AIP.

You say you submitted a full application? That’s probably why there’s hard searches.0

Barclays agreement in principle via broker involves a hard search. Same as NatWest.I am a mortgage broker.
