You should start requesting conveyancing quotes from solicitors ASAP.

After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on a house in Gwersyllt. My mortgage broker pressured me to appoint their conveyancing practitioner. I paid an on account payment of £200. A couple of days later, the lawyer called me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the RBS 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 RBS 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.
