After months of negotiation I have agreed a price on an apartment in Gilwern. My financial adviser suggested a property lawyer. I paid an on account payment of £175. Not long after, the property lawyer contacted me embarrassingly acknowledging that they were not on the HSBC 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 HSBC 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.
About to purchase maisonette in Gilwern.

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 Gilwern conveyancer is on the Santander conveyancing panel.
