Diamond Desk put in the request, saying they usually have a 90-95% success rate, but they said it could take up to 2 weeks to confirm.

My questions:

-is that 90-95% success rate accurate?
-will it really take up to two weeks or are they just over-estimating?

Thanks in advance....
I put a similar request for a property in the UK less than a week out and got a positive response within 24 hours. This was last week.
