Nationwide Screwing Fixed Rate - Banned ditch the fix to make profit

13»

  • How much is your mortgage?

    Nationwide's website states that the ERC's for their fixed deals are:
    2% for two year fixes
    4% for three year fixes
    5% for five year fixes

    So, for an ERC of £1,000 your mortgage would need to be:
    £50,000 on a two year fix
    £25,000 if it's a three year fix
    £20,000 if it's a five year fix

    FWIW, I think Nationwide are within their rights to refuse a new application but they cannot stop you leaving and finding a new lender. This seems harsh and is poor PR but Nationwide tie their SVR to base rate. I'm surprised that changing to another Nationwide deal is so beneficial.

    They may be the current rates - they seem to have changed a few times over recent years - ours is a 5 year fix (currently 1 year in) and the redemption charge is 3%.
