    We have just been through a Pandemic Which meant many offices shut for months.
    Local councils, Land registry, banks, etc
    Every single firm of solicitors have faced major delays 
    People now expect McDonald's speed of service with every meal.
    Your buying a property and the solicitors MUST do due diligence.
    Thing's are taking a lot longer and you ringing 10 times a day won't make it happen any quicker

    None of that is any excuse for them to ignore their clients and not give any updates when contacted!
    Standard practice, I'm afraid. Complete disdain from most. Apologists here say it's overwork, but that seems unlikely or if true poor time management.
