IKIABU posting here. But desperately seeking the most traffic. Long story in short. A charge was placed on an ex martial home. Both agreed. I have just seen the house up for sale and checked the charge, and it's been removed. I enquired with Land registry, who stated that they sent me a letter to agree or challenge. I had 28 days. I never received this letter, and I am desperately trying to get this charge put back on urgently until this matter is sorted to stop the sale. My question is. Has anyone ever challenged and won against a company when they didn't receive letters. Land registry are like a stuck record of....we sent the letter. Many thanks.

@Misunderestimated digitisation allowed the introduction of the property alert system and to have an email address on the register as one of the 3 permitted addresses.

These two free services have helped prevent fraud not facilitate it.

People who chose not to use these free services, nor the Royal Mail post redirection service, means the only way to communicate with the property owner is via snail mail. When a property owner leaves their property empty for significant periods it allows fraudsters it intercept snail mail and commit fraud. None of this is Land Registry’s responsibility.

Apparently, all they have to do is send a letter. Not even registered. Very worrying.

It is. Best of luck with the appeal, and with the house sale.

@Seeleyboo so what process do you think they should have?
