How to merge, consolidate or close a Landonline account

How to request in writing the merge, consolidation or closing of a Landonline account.

Account mergers, consolidations and closures require letters of instruction before they can be processed. Allow 5 working days for processing.

Sort existing work in Landonline before merge or consolidation

Survey work needs to be transferred from the Landonline accounts to be closed to a surveyor linked to the new Landonline account before closure of the old accounts. 

For conveyancing firms, the Landonline account to be closed is kept open in the background to allow the completion of any outstanding dealings of the old firm. Any new dealings need to be set up in the new Landonline account.

Request a merge or consolidation

If a firm wants to merge Landonline accounts due to a firm merger, they need to request this in writing. The letter must be on company letterhead and signed by a partner or director of both merging firms. 

If a firm wants to consolidate their Landonline accounts, the letter must be on company letterhead and signed by the firm’s partner or director.

What to include in a letter to merge or consolidate accounts

Email a letter as a scanned, full colour PDF. It needs to include:

  • What Landonline accounts are merging, including Landonline account names and account codes.
  • The name of the new account if changing. This will usually be the new firm’s name.
  • The date the merge of the accounts is to take place.
  • The users - and their access types - that will be moving to the new account and their updated contact details.
  • The users that aren’t moving.
  • The new account holder's address, if needed.
  • Who the Trusted Contact and System Manager will be, if changing.
  • That the new account holder will accept any Landonline debt belonging to the previous accounts.
