Still waiting for a decision on an indemnity policy!!!!

So our onward purchase is literally hanging by a thread due to either, our buyer’s solicitor not sending the Santander the indemnity policy document or Santander not picking up the document when it was sent. We were all set to exchange last week when suddenly, it came to light that Santander had not received the document. It was resent last Friday but a week on we have heard nothing!!!! Everyday we are asking for updates, we get told it’s been escalated and we’ll hear in 24 hrs… still nothing… oh might be another 48 hrs!!! There is literally nothing left for us to do but I have got to the point where I really feel that our buyer’s solicitor has really messed up and is not being truthful with either our buyer or our EA, who has also worked very hard pushing things for us. Our vendor is not patient as I’ve said in previous threads. Already I face paying three lots of conveyancing bills as our main residence fell through earlier in the process. We will owe the best chunk of £5K!!!! Apart from the obvious things of rattling cages and banging on doors, is there anything else I can do???? I’m feeling pretty rubbish due to us holding everyone up through no fault of our own!!!! Any advice welcome!!!

What was the indemnity policy for?0

The public indemnity insurance was to cover vehicle access over a neighbours land in order to access garage and parking. I’ve since had a further update and apparently Santander are now questioning the PRoW that runs in a straight line on the very edge of the southern boundary. There is a gate at the side of the house and a stile 90 yards further up the garden all running within but on the southern boundary of the garden without any deviation. These were all questions answered during the enquiry process so why they are being picked over again now is beyond me. Surely this should have been sorted long before we got to the exchange point. Just my thoughts but very tired of all this now.Tiglet2 said:What was the indemnity policy for?0 -
Did this get sorted in the end? Currently awaiting for Santander to tell us whether they accept their indemnity insurance0
