Incomprehensible Incompetence and Lies

I think I'm fortunate in never before having dealt with incompetence on the level exhibited by GPL. There incompetence and lies have lead to my chain not progressing and having to wait another two weeks to try again.

I was supposed to exchange contract on the 27th of September. GPL confirmed that they were ready to proceed with the exchange and that everything was in order days before this. On the day of exchange they suddenly realised that they hadn't received a response on a parking plan up the chain and decided that because of this it couldn't proceed. They hadn't even chased this parking plan until that day! This was frustrating.

We tried again on the 30th of September. On the 27th GPL confirmed that once they had the parking plan they would be okay to proceed. They received the parking plan. Great news. All of a sudden they decided that the signature on the TR1 form did not match the other signatures they had on documents. This was the 9th copy of the TR1 form submitted theu they had either lost or had issues with! They confirmed that once they had this form then the exchange would happen. The TR1 was sent 24hr tracked delivery.

On the 1st of October we tried again. The TR1 form arrived with GPL by midday and they confirmed that the exchange would take place. Then 10 minutes later they suddenly realised that they needed to wait for an OS2 search to come back. This OS2 search was based on the plan they received on the 27th. I cannot understand how it is possible to forget that you ordered a search that would block a chain, and confirm to your client that nothing could block the exchange and then realise moments after that confirmation that you are missing documentation.

This is an incomprehensible level of incompetence and negligence amd I am infuriated with them.

I am not their client but part of the chain, but I felt compelled to warn people away from this disgraceful company! If I was paying for this service I would certainly be demanding a refund.

AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL

This is a joke of a firm - they are impossible to get hold of and the customer service is non existent
Natwest use these people so I had no choice but to use them - a simple remortgage turned in to a 4 month farce!
Sending letters and final equity cheques to the wrong address or just not bothering at all and then lying to say they have
Notice all the good reviews are months ago - look at recent ones - this is a true reflection

Tried to remortgage with natwest.
Ended up abandoning the remortgage due to the incompetence of these case handlers. The principle solicitors should be shot. Another prime example of you pay peanuts you get a team of underqualified individuals with no attention to detail and request the same and more information over and over again.

Natwest losing business for partnering with the wrong company

So far we had an awful experience to proceed the remortgage with NatWest. They don't know what they are doing and most incompetent law firms I've ever come across. Avoid at any costs!
I would give 0 star if I could.

I have had an awful experience with this firm who were instructed to complete my remortgage by NatWest. They failed to do the correct title searches and left me with 2 primary mortgages on my property. They told me I had completed and days later I found out they had not even cleared my previous mortgage. They have shown me no empathy when I have been chasing them to rectify their mistakes and left me in a legally and financially compromised position. AVOID!!!
