Hello there,
I have seen the similar post today but the case is slightly different so I opened a new chapter. We moved into our new house last month after completing all the formalities. 2 days before collecting the keys my solicitor sent us the the invoice detailing the expenses incurred, his fees and o/s balance to be paid back to me. On the day he gave us the key he gave a cheque for the o/s amount and we deposited the cheque into my account, which was later on encashed.
I received a call yesterday from my solicitor asking me to pay extra 900 € towards Stamp duty. Actually the problem was with them calculating SD on 330K which was 330K*3% = 9900. He only asked us to pay 9000, now he is asking us to pay 900 €. Do I have to pay or .....? Please advise.
