Our mortgage advisor put our application for approval in a week ago and still not heard anything. He is on leave, and although he is responding to emails I don't want to harass him. He said he would let me know as soon as he heard, but I am worried as not heard anything and it is now nearly the weekend! Anyone got experience of this and how long it usually takes? We got approval in principle for borrowing 240 000 and have only asked to borrow 149 - how much can be taken from the approval in principle thing?? Really stressed that looks like I am going to have to wait all weekend. He is not back from leave till 16th and we have appointment 17th. Would be grateful to hear any other experiences!
