Just to update folk on here. After restoring our mortgage with UB just over 2 weeks ago, we yesterday received a cheque for redress compensation etc for the period we were away from UB (almost 10 years). The amount was in or around as expected.
Its a big relief to finally have it sorted, we sorta can't believe it, it has been hanging out there for so many years.
We wish good luck to others in the same boat here that they will get sorted. Hang on in there, it will come.
The information on here was huge in keeping us going at various stages so a big thank you to askaboutmoney and everyone on here for that.
Finally, a word about Padraic Kissane. A very busy guy but well worth having on your side. His knowledge of this is exceptional and he was of key assistance at crucial times in this long process and we've found him and his team excellent.
Even at this stage, I'd strongly consider getting him involved if you haven't already. We battled on for years on our own, it was great to have his advice at key points over the last two years or so.
