  • the bit about A&L being purchase only is not true as I have just spoken to them for a re-mortgage and they have given me an agreement in principal at 3.95%

    Hi
    I had a appointment was in A&L today at 12.30, we were signing up for the 5 year fixed at 3.99% no fees when the product disappeared from the screen.

    So i was about 15 mins too late.

    Anyone know if any other 5 year fixed rate of 3.99% around, little or no fees LTV is only 40%.
    Pay £7,500 in 2011 paid £29,325 No 43 OP £21,825
    Olympic 78= £20,000 paid £35,708 over paid £15,708
    Mortgage over payment £1996/£1497 paid in 2011
    sealed pot 4 number 845
    Weight Loss 29lbs/13lbs
  • at the moment, they're all in the same ball park...3.95/3.99% and £995/£999 fee.

    HSBC wanted the fee up front though and it couldn't be added to the mortgage but A&L can be added if required

    ouch! glad I got my offer through on tuesday then!

    It seems like they decided to mop up some of the low LTV people who were sitting on the fence about a new deal... tempted them off trackers and SVR's. Now they have signed up a bunch of new, good quality business, they're off over the hills and far away!!
  • Just called them (A&L) and 3.99% no longer available to anyone remorg or new biz.
    Ah well indeed....
    ;)Thanks;)
