Hi again Josko
it seems to me (but please check this with a QLD solicitor who doesn't fobb you off)
what you really need to do is just replace the form 24 with a correct one and make sure any form 1 refers to the correct document lodged at the titles office.
You possibly could do this without getting the bank's solicitor involved - do you have a titles office number which starts with a 7 something which refers to the correct trust?
you would then lodge a form 14 with a form 20 (which is the declaration part - and yes I scanned it in from an example on the DNRW site) - which is a declaration from you which gives a chronology of the matter and how there has been an error made - probably by the purchaser's solicitor relying on material supplied by the bank rather than checking for themselves - and you now need to rectify the register (in particular the form 24) to refer to the correct trust.
It may be you don't need to lodge a new form 1 - just a new form 24
Also just for your reference the purchaser's solicitor would have prepared the form 1 and left a space blank for the lodger - which is in this case the bank - the bank would have had no hand in preparing it. I do think your solicitor who did your purchase is trying to fobb you off - and I do believe you have grounds to lodge a complaint against them if they don't get off their backside and assist you in rectifying the titles register.
thanks
