LIBOR - How to find out the rate?

Can anyone recommend a good site that keeps track and gives the current LIBOR rate please? I'm coming off a fixed rate and want to work out what my new payments will be. Thanks.

    What does the LIBOR have to do with anything?
    Mortgage rates have receently be anything BUT linked to LIBOR.

    Lisy - many SVRS (esp subprime) are LIBOR linked.

    Slivafox - you have to take a lot of the folk on here with a pinch of salt as most have serious holier-than-thou attitudes...

    You can ask the lender what the rate will be (or is currently) or try a web site or two - this has some info - http://www.bba.org.uk/bba/jsp/polopoly.jsp?d=141&a=11948

    Wutang and Andy, thank you for your replies. I think I'll give the lender a buzz as the LIBOR appears to change its rates frequently and I'm not sure what figure they take and how they work it out.

    Thanks again for the links...

    Thanks for your reply (and answering without being judgemental).

    I was thinking of NEW mortgages and didn't realise you were referring to an existing mortgage. I get it now.

    Sorry for taking your time, and thanks again for helping me out.

    Some lenders link their rates to the 'three month libor' rate so you may find that your rate changes every quarter. I'm sorry I can't give you the definitive 3-month libor rate that they use.

    Hi

    This site seems useful. It gives different time spans, up to June 2008.
