That's dreadful.Very slow. I started the switching process back in mid June, I was ultra quick responding to any request and provided all documents promptly, only got approval in principle on the 29th Aug. I have been told it will take 25 working days for the loan offer to issue, but wouldn't be surprised if that was delayed.
Thanks Paul. I have engaged a solicitor, they haven't had to do anything yet as Haven are so slow. Its frustrating as all mortgage applications with Haven have to go through a broker, so I cant contact Haven myself to try and get them to hurry up, I can only keep asking the broker for updates, which I have stopped doing, as they told me Haven are by far the slowest for processing a switch.That's dreadful.
Consider posting your mortgage details in the switcher thread (in the format shown in the first post). I'll estimate the savings you would make from switching to different rates with your current lender (or to another lender apart from Haven if you want to go that route).
Have you already engaged the services of a solicitor for the Haven switch? If so, you would need to check how they would charge you if you decided to try switching to another lender (or if you abandoned the Haven switch).
thats crazy, you got approval in principle 25th July and still haven't drawn down? I have no chance of drawing down before fixed rates rise! How can they be this incompetent, switching mortgage should not take 4-6mths.We started a switch to Haven in May, was early June by the time it was with Haven, got approval in principal on 25th July and we're still waiting
