The FSCS bit is correct as we had this very issue last year. Our biggest problem was convincing our mortgage provider, Santander, that the £400K we were contributing towards the purchase wasn't laundered cash, despite the fact they had proof it had come from various other sources and we had completed thorough AML due diligence when they first agreed the to port a mortgage product! I had a very irate discussion with the mortgage complaints team who were absolutely insistent that all cash went through a single account as a condition of the mortgage; I guess they wanted to launder it.
