Dear All
My partner and i have applied for a mortgage the company who came out with the best deal via our financial advisor was Abbey. The FA did the sums and concluded that we could easily afford the house we have offered on, yet Abbey just seem to be taking so long to approve the mortgage. 4 weeks so far, which i know a lot of people will think is not long, but when you can't move forward in the house buy as you don't technically have a mortgage then it is for ever. They keep asking for info they already have been given and then we end up going to the bottom of the underwriters pile.
Obviously i am becoming very angry and upset, has anyone had any similar problems with them, is there anyway to escalate to move things along, does anyone work there and can give me some insider info to help hurry this up..
Thanks
