"But brokers point to that fact that gilt yields, which dictate the rate of interest on wholesale lending between banks, have risen in response to the Government's failed gilt auction on Wednesday. This could be a signal that rates have bottomed out. "0 -

Really!?
They have pulled their 3.99% fixed and replaced it with a 3.95% fixed (different terms)
On this evidence it hardly signals that rates have bottomed out........0 -
Just called A&L to confirm. It was pulled at 12:00 today and is no longer available to new applications.
Tried to convince me a comparable product was the 3.95% fixed for 5 years with a £995 fee :mad:.0 -
I got the rate agreed at 11:55 - with 5 minutes to spare!0
