My financial adviser requires my Frampton on Severn law firm’s panel reference for the Santander conveyancing panel. Can you suggest how I find this out. I have called my local Frampton on Severn branch but they don't know it.
The sensible thing to do is ask for this information from your Frampton on Severn solicitor . Most Frampton on Severn conveyancing practices will retain a file or database of lender panel information which would include, if applicable, their conveyancing panel details for each mortgage company.
I am only a couple days away from an exchange on a property in Frampton on Severn and my mum and dad have transferred the exchange deposit to my lawyer. I am now informed that as the deposit has been received from someone other than me my lawyer needs to make a notification to my mortgage company. I am advised that, in also acting for the mortgage company he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is not just from me. I informed the bank about my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?
The conveyancing practitioner is duty bound to clarify with lender to make sure that they know that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. Your solicitor can only disclose this to your lender if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.

I am buying a new build house in Frampton on Severn with a mortgage from Birmingham Midshires. The builders would not move on the price so I negotiated five thousand pounds worth of extras instead. The estate agent advised me not to tell my conveyancer about this side-deal as it could put at risk my loan with the lender. Should I keep quiet?.
All lenders require a Disclosure of Incentives Form from the developer of any new build, converted or renovated property, It is available online from the Lenders’ Handbook page on the CML website. CML form is completed and handed to the lender's surveyor when the inspection is done.
Lenders have different policies on incentives. Some accept none at all, cash or physical, while others will accept cash incentives up to 5%.
Hard to understand why the representative of a builder would be suggesting you withold information from a solicitor when all this will be clearly visible on forms the builder has to supply to its solicitor, the buyer's solicitor and the surveyor.
