    Similar happened to me before due to sign the contract on the friday - Weds morning they wrote to say they'd pulled out as a higher bid came in! I lost all my fees which I didn't need.

    We need better laws like in Scotland

    BTW sorry you lost the house

    info for the future - i can offer no completion, no fee on the legal side of things which might save some peeps some money on here?
