Connells solicitors, Conveyancing Direct, should never be used, they have cost us thousands of pounds due to their severe lack of urgency and complete ineptitude. Please do yourself a favour and just google them and see hundreds of terrible reviews, we wish we had, rather than just taking the recommendation of the mortgage advisor. - This company are absolute amateurs, often taking weeks to reply to basic requests via email, almost never answering the phone, and never having the answers you need, often forgetting what was previously stated in calls/emails and never giving timescales for when he would complete critically time sensitive tasks. - On several occasions our conveyancer lied to us about not receiving documents from the sellers solicitor and when called out on the fact he had received said documents would give us an excuse as to why he had missed it, never apologising or taking responsibility. - We went to Connells to buy our first house which had no chain. This seems to be a very common theme with Conveyancing Direct to never prioritise cases which should be simple with no chain - our conveyancer had zero urgency and at every step let us down, we had to put in for a mortgage extension and even then he didn’t inform us of the outcome until 4:30pm on the day it expired. - The lack of urgency meant that extension also expired and could not be extended again, meaning we had no choice but to apply for mortgage with far worse interest rates, which will cost us thousands extra over our mortgage term. - Our conveyancer was completely incompetent, having to ask his manager on every decision, the only half decent service we received was when he was on annual leave!
