What does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Pembroke? Is this really warranted?
It is indeed that case that these requests have nothing to do with conveyancing in Pembroke. However these days you can not proceed with any conveyancing process if you have not providing evidence of your identity.

I am planning to move house in September. Should my conveyancing solicitor update the removal company on the completion day. On a separate note, can you recommend a removal company in Pembroke. Conveyancing firm was found prior to coming across this page.
On the afternoon of completion you will need to pick up the keys from the estate agent however this should only occur when the vendors lawyers advise the agent that the monies to complete are in and the keys can be given over. Subsequently you will need to inform the removal company that they can start moving you in.

When it comes to mortgage companies such as Barclays, do Pembroke conveyancers face an annual charge to be on the list of approved solicitors?

I am currently in the process of buying my council flat in Pembroke. I have a mortgage agreed with HSBC. Conveyancing is not something I have any knowledge of. Can I proceed without a solicitor easily? I think we can but we keep being told I should have one. Any advice?
It is not advisable to proceed with a house purchase without a solicitor. The council's solicitor are not acting for you. You need a solicitor for a number reasons. One of which is to verify what plans the Council have for repairs and refurbishment for the next five years. Many leaseholders have been stung for contributions of thousands of pounds. In any event, if you are getting a mortgage with HSBC, you will need to appoint a solicitor on the HSBC conveyancing panel.
four months have elapsed since my purchase conveyancing in Pembroke concluded. I have checked the Land Registry site which shows that I paid £150,000 when infact I paid £215,000. Why the discrepancy?
The price paid figure is taken from the application to register the purchase. It is the figure included in the Transfer (the legal deed which transfers the premises from one person to the other) and referred to as the 'consideration' or purchase price. You can report an error in the price paid figure using the LR online form. In most cases errors result from typos so at first glance the figure. Do report it so they can double check and advise.

If there are lifts in the building, please confirm that the owners of flats on the ground and basement floors will not be required to contribute towards the cost of maintenance and renewal. Where there is an Undertaking being granted there is the risk of forfeiture of the Headlease subject to relief if one or more of the Underlessees are willing to accept the original Head Lessee’s obligations as otherwise relief will be denied to the Underlessees. The only alternatives are the Head Lessor agreeing not to forfeit the Headlease or the Head Lessee guaranteeing to the Underlessees that it will not be in breach of the Headlease. Will the freehold then be transferred for a nominal consideration (not exceeding £100) to the Management Company? The Lease must contain a provision on behalf of the Vendor to pay the service charges in respect of unoccupied units in order to ensure that all services can be provided.
