I'm not too worried as like you say the mortgage company will check all that!
Mortgage company only survey to confirm it is habitable (kitchen and bathroom present) and that the valuation is realistic to confirm your LTV.

They don't check *anything* else. Your solicitor will check mine records etc but depending on the area's history and age of the house the only way to have some sort of certanty is to have a proper survey. (by proper I don't mean a home buyers survey :) )

Worried about it now.
Inside the letter was copies of both of our driving licences, 3 months payslips, 3 months bank statements, account numbers, N.I numbers, signatures, dates of birth etc etc. :?

Sent it recorded which shows it never left the post office.
The post office are shrugging their shoulders.
Royal fail have told me there's nothing they can do and I'm not entitled to any compensation because it has no value :evil:

Why not call your Bank and see what they advise? I'm just wondering what someone could do with that info....the drivers licence can't prove Identity as the Photo will be 'wrong' and it's only a copy so I don't think it will get past that first hurdle. Someone could try to set up a direct debit or finance agreement maybe? speak to your bank(s) they could put a marker on your account so that any new attempted Direct Debits or whatever have to be authorised by you over the phone. Biggest risk is someone getting your card details, pin, address and expiry date and this is not the case.
