Completion of my purchase has taken place for my property in Kirkdale. Conveyancing was satisfactory but I feel I should register my dissatisfaction about the lender. How do I make a complaint?
All banks and building societies have complaints procedures. Your first point of contact should be one of the lender’s branches or the Customer Care Team at head office. In most cases complaints to a lender are sorted out very quickly. If you feel the matter is not resolved you can write to Financial Ombudsman Service with full details of your complaint.
I can not fathom if my lender requires a lease extension. I have telephoned my Kirkdale building society branch on numerous occasions and was told they are content with the situation and they will lend. My Kirkdale conveyancing solicitor - who is on the mortgage company conveyancing panel- called to say that they would not lend based on their published requirements. Who do I believe?
Your lawyer must follow the Council of Mortgage Lenders’ Handbook Part 2 requirements for your lender. Unless your lawyer obtains specific confirmation in writing that the bank will go ahead, your lawyer has no choice but to refrain from exchanging contract and committing you to the purchase. We would suggest that you ask the bank to contact your lawyer in writing confirming that they will accept the number of years left on the lease.

I wanted to make sure it means there will be no additional fees for dealing with the mortgage.
They are simply saying that the cost for acting for the lender is included in the fee being quoted. It is worth you checking that the Kirkdale solicitor is on the Leeds Building Society conveyancing panel.
