I have been referred to a conveyancing solicitor in Castle Donington. I need to find out if they are on the Santander conveyancing panel. Could you or the lender confirm if they are on the panel?

The formalities of my remortgage has taken place for my property in Castle Donington. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. Who do I contact should I wish to lodge a complaint?
Almost all lenders have complaints procedures. Your first port of call should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Team at head office. Ordinarily complaints to a lender are resolved very quickly. However if you are not satisfied that the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service, South Quay Plaza, 183 Marsh Wall, London E14 9SR who will take matters further.
After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Castle Donington. My mortgage broker suggested a conveyancing practitioner. I paid an upfront payment of £175. Soon after, the conveyancer called me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the UBS 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 UBS 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.
