    Tempting, but only for 2 years.

    A 3 year fix is 5.59% whereas a 5 year fix is 5.69%.

    With regards to the "members only" deals, what is the criteria for being a member?

    you probably have to have some form of savings or borrowings from Britannia

    Hmm, my mortgage going through at the moment is fixed at 5.74% for 4 years, for an 85% LTV. £495 fee with free valuation and £250 cashback. This is with Abbey.

    How do you think this compares? The ball is already in motion so think probably too late to change.

    Not a bad deal Mike compared with whats out there.

    Seems insane to call a fix @ 10X base rate not bad though
