Summary

Lloyds (England and Wales) replaces its Gloucester, Halifax and PO Box addresses with The Green Building, Leeds LS78 1LB for mortgage processing, deeds, sealing and deeds of variation, rectification and easement, drops the 20 pound CHAPS fee, and wants redemption statements requested through the Lender Exchange contact form. Incentives are reported to the Conveyancer Support email with the finders' fee rules restored, the list of acceptable gifted-deposit relatives is spelled out, and the attestation clause now depends on whether the mortgage number begins with 80 (Bank of Scotland plc).

Check the lender’s current requirements before you rely on this summary.
