The latest comment I have on the tracker is from 7 March. No further updates since.
They haven't even ticked off ID checks which I thought should have been a very straightforward task. I assume they need to do everything in one go.
I assume it takes longer to process my application as I am self-employed.

I guess this means I will have to wait until 31/03 (8 working days since 22/03) - fun times!

I've been waiting since 2 March. They keep asking for more and more documents and nothing is ticked off on the tracker. It is so stressful. I don't know what to think about it.
I hope for some progress this week.0 -
We started our application on 10th March, documents reviewed on the 18th. The valuation was today (the vendor told us they'd been in touch, we'd not heard anything from neither NatWest nor our broker).
I had to ring them last week to pay the fee, and when talking the lass told me it was with the underwriters and applications are typically taking 33 days from application to offer.0 -
Any updates on this?
