Apparently, being on the Allied Irish Bank conveyancing panel and acting on their behalf he must inform Allied Irish Bank if the balance of the mortgage advance is coming from anyone other than me. I disclosed to the bank about my parent’s contribution when I applied for the mortgage so is it really necessary for him to raise this?

I previously instructed online solicitors located in Birmingham who are on the Allied Irish Bank solicitor panel. They have just invoiced me a separate fee of £175 for the legal aspects of the Allied Irish Bank mortgage. Is this an additional conveyancing fee specified by Allied Irish Bank?
Unfortunately, as long as it is in their Terms and Conditions or Quote then yes your solicitors can charge a fee for this. This fee is not set by Allied Irish Bank but by your lawyers. Some firms on the Allied Irish Bank will charge an ‘acting for lender’ fee and others do not.
I am due to exchange contracts on my flat. I had a double glazing fitted in month 7 but did not receive a FENSA certificate or Building Regulation Certificate. My buyer's mortgage company, Allied Irish Bank are being problematic. The solicitor who is on the Allied Irish Bank conveyancing panel is saying indemnity insurance will be fine but Allied Irish Bank are insisting on a building regulation certificate. Why do Allied Irish Bank have a conveyancing panel of they don’t accept advice from them?
It is probably the case that Allied Irish Bank have referred the matter to their valuer. The reason why Allied Irish Bank may not want to accept indemnity insurance is because it does not give them any reassurance that the double glazing correctly and safely installed. It merely protects against enforcement action which is very unlikely anyway.
