Hello All
Just feel like I need to write this down as my frustration is boiling over.
We put an offer on a property on 5th October 2021 which was accepted. We were the taken the same day to our solicitor to start the ball rolling, notary, NIE, etc.
On 3rd November my solicitor contacted me to say that Sabadell would be in touch to move this forward. We sent all our documents then.
We received our NIE numbers 10 November.
On 15 November our solicitors forwarded them!
On 30 November I chased this up as nothing had happened.
Then 20 December Sabadell got in touch, said the account was set up but then demanded proof of income which we sent straight away.
Then 21 December they sent me an email with 7 attachments on with over 100 sheets of paper in them stating we had to print EVERY one off and sign EVERY one both of us and on front and reverse of every sheet and then send it back by private courier!
So, from our point of view this has been going on for over 2 months and we are supposed to complete next week, we are both at work and I don't know anywhere to do this printing off or the cost or where to find the time during the working day or even if anywhere will be open!
I'm just raging at the minute and also my solicitor says I cannot use Wise for my purchase even though I have the full amount sitting in euros in it. They are going on about bankers drafts and laundering etc and it being foreign, even though it falls under SEPA banking. I'm also sure Sabadell are doing their best to frustrate us, as I'm sure an email stating my intentions to leave them once I'd purchased the property was viewed by them.
Is this the same for everyone???
