Does this maen that Chelsea are bottom of the league.

They have announced today the biggest loss out of all BS (Not Banks) so far, so in a way I can see their justification for the high SVR.

This is a pretty good place to compare. Not always updated immediately but quite good generally.

ah yes, they just cut 0.45 !!
how pedantic is that ???

BOE cut 0.50, so they follow with a 0.45

how desperate are they that they need to nick another 0.05% ???

Perhaps, not desperate at all. Perhaps, they can't reduce their savings rates by 0.50% across the board - particularly all those rates that are already almost 0% - so they can't possibly afford to reduce SVR by 0.50%?


Mcrewe's rate isn't an SVR, so it's not strictly relevant to this thread.

High risk borrowing carries rates which are reflective of that higher risk
