I have an AIP. The bank mentioned the home loan came with free conveyancing. Does this mean I have to instruct their panel lawyer as I would prefer to instruct a specialised conveyancing solicitor in Barbican?

You should check but the the likelihood is that allocate you one of their panel conveyancers if you want the "fee-free" deal. Speak to the mortgage company and explore if they offer you a monetary alternative. Some banks have previously offered a £250 cashback as an alternative in which case you could put that amount towards your preferred conveyancing solicitor in Barbican.

Does a directory service exist listing Clydesdale panel conveyancers in Barbican on the Building Society Association’s Website?

I am expecting a AIP from Kent Reliance this week so we can work out what to offer on a property we like as otherwise we only have online calculators to go by (which aren't taking into account credit checks etc). Do Kent Reliance recommend any Barbican solicitors on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel, or is it better to find our own lawyer?

You will need to appoint Barbican solicitors independently although you'll need to choose one on the Kent Reliance conveyancing panel. The solicitor represents both you and Kent Reliance through the process.

After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Barbican. My financial adviser suggested a conveyancer. I paid an advanced payment of £150. Shortly after, the solicitor contacted me sheepishly admitting that they were not on the HSBC conveyancing panel. Am I right in thinking that I should be due a refund?

You should be able to recover this from the law firm if they were not on the HSBC panel. They should have asked at the outset which lender you were obtaining a mortgage with. An important lesson to readers of this site is to check that the lawyers are on the appropriate lender panel.
