    2% above base rate - that would be 2.5%, if you are referring to the current BOE base rate. So where has the 9% figure come from?

    A lot of the now defunct adverse lenders used Libor + X% as their revert-to rate - and even that would need to be Libor + 7%. So I think someone has something confused here.....
