We remortgaged and our solicitor recieved the cheque on 28th November. All loans etc were paid off by December 1st as far as we were told. We should have had a balance of about 2500 (pre fees). Just before Christmas we recieved a cheque for €500. Couldn't understand the difference so we queried the breakdown from the solicitor. We had paid an extra 1000 on the mortgage plus 1000 fees accounting for the 2500.
So we requested a statement from the old mortgage company which stated they didn't get the cheque until the 21st December costing us 988 euro in interest! The other 12 was a discharge fee.
We called the solicitors who got very defensive and said it can take 7-10 days on each side (theirs and the mortgage co) to get it wrapped up. Do we have any comeback at all?
