senni;
From your post it appears Ptsb have not acted carefully here.From your thread it appears they wish to (rush) you into sorting something that is only picked up after 8 years and that you could have reasonably thought was sorted.
To tell you 10days is bullying !
1.
Write to Ptsb and ask for a full and thorough explanation of how this occurred.Request a full copy of your file (do not be fobbed off)
Request they withhold any action until you get proper clarity and paperwork over what has occurred.
Tell them you are very concerned that it may even be ,that you do not hold Title to the property.
2.
The Law Society.
From what you say they are quick nuff out of the blocks to start covering their bases?They say you have to prove your solicitor was dishonest, it is probable he was just incompetent and I would think that if he was , they are caught.Be aware The Law Society are self -regulating(need I say more) .
Also keep a written paper trail on all this , including costs as per kmick..
I wouldn,t go to another Solicitor until you know for SURE what the issue is and have a fair idea is fault with Solicitor or Ptsb. After all what is a few months in 8 years?
{i just ain,t happy that Ptsb,s first reaction is to state you are personally liable}
