"Hi,
Usually it is late arrival of mortgage funds. Conveyancers should request funds for the working day before completion and the Law Society's National Conveyancing Protocol provides for this. Some lenders do it as a matter of course, but not…"

Profile Information
- About me
I am the Managing Director of Movingetc Ltd and originally started the company in 2004. I am passionate about the property and relocation industry and actively campaign for changes to be made in the property transaction process so that moving home "works" for everyone. Both customers and back office staff alike.
The Moving etc... brand now includes http://www.movingetc.tv the social network and relocation resource you are on now, http://www.movingetc.co.uk a directory of recommended removal companies and http://www.movingetcnetwork.com a forum for removal companies and staff working within the removals industry.
Before starting Moving etc... I worked for nearly 4 years at Crown Relocations in their London office coordinating both inbound and outbound International and European Corporate Removals.
I have also worked for various small to medium sized Removal Companies along the way, including Cadogan Tate and my parents company, Britannia Finches of London.
I have been Transport Manager in charge of 60 Removal Men, 2 warehouses and 10 removal trucks, Sales Manager in charge of customer service levels and sales targets and Move Manager looking after the relocation needs of clients all over the world. I was one of the youngest female transport managers in the removals industry when I was 21 years old, have a forklift license, my National CPC and used to move containers around in the warehouse and drive 7.5t removal lorries!
My favourite job, other than the one I have now, was Transport Manager organising the teams and making sure that everything ran smoothly and customers got looked after.
I love the moving industry, it's people, the trust between movers and the bond property people have when helping customers. My passion is to improve the image of the removals industry and implement changes in the property sector.
I love being a mum to my 7 year old daughter who is beautiful, full of energy and a bright shiny star, who always has to be the center of attention. I am passionate about Personal Development, extremely creative and always try to be the best person that I can be, by always learning and growing everyday. (Notice the word "try" ;o) And I love creating solutions to help the moving industry get better and easier.
I now run various websites including http://www.movingetc.co.uk, http://www.furnitureremovalcompanies.com, this one http://www.movingetc.tv and a private business network and forum for removal companies http://www.movingetcnetwork.com
If you work in the property industry please join the website, connect with other members and contribute your knowledge and expertise to this great resource for property people and home movers. If you work in the removals industry please send me an email at jane @ movingetc.tv to discuss how I can help you and your business.

Reddaways Removals and Storage said… - Hi Jane
The mover of the year competition is open and free to all BAR members.
The first stage is to send in with your entry a statement in less than (I think) 120 words of why you should be mover of the year.
Next the shortlisted entries 10? are contacted and told to expect a visit from the judges BAR bigwigs!, when they arrive they check out correct paperwork,vehicles,training,premises, etc,etc.
I guess its a version of a check for BSI, but not yet having had that I'm not certain. They check that training is carried out and recorded, such as manual handling, packing, induction,health & safety, the list goes on!
If you manage to then get shortlisted from the inspection, your'e in the final six
who then have to supply the phone numbers of 4or 5 past customers who the OFT (this year) contact and question about their recent move.
As you know for the past two years we have managed to get into the top six, but not yet won, we will keep trying, at least for one more year!!
Best wishes
Geoff
