If a mortgage falls through before searches are completed are the search fees refundable if they have done no work ie done any searches. If they refuse to refund as a service hasn’t been supplied would section 75 refund apply?

What searches are you referring to?
Searches related to a house purchase would be done by your solicitor, and unless you asked them not to do any chargeable work until you had a mortgage offer, it is likely they have sent off for the searches even if they've not yet received the results, so unlikely they'd refund that cost.0
