My mortgage broker found me a suitable deal but failed to check whether this deal was still available when he submitted the application 3 days later.
Roll on 4 weeks later and I receive my mortgage offer only to discover that the fee and ERC has doubled, making the deal no longer suitable. Broker has admitted their mistake but is now pushing me to another deal with the same provider saying it's cheaper because they can turn it around quickly, thereby avoiding me having to pay over the odds on my current SVR while we apply to another provider. Which would make sense except that I'm only in this situation because they fucked up the original mortgage application. If they had checked the deal when they submitted the application I'd have gone for the other provider. I feel they should cover the extra I have to pay on SVR while I apply for another mortgage given they made the mistake (we are talking about £1.5k).
Am I likely to get them to pay this?
