One thing that worries about L&C - you look at their best buy table on their site and, for example, the best 5-year fixed rate deal they have is NatWest for 3.79% with a product fee of £999.

I then picked 5 random lenders to see what their best 5-year deal was.
The Post Office, Nationwide, Chelsea BS, First Direct and HSBC.
Only Nationwide had a WORSE best deal than the NatWest one.
ie http://mortgages.firstdirect.com/mortgage-rates
And then I looked at the NatWest site, and you can get a deal at 3.75% with no product fee if you take out a current account.. not mentioned on the L&C site!
Why would they mention the direct deals?
They are Whole of Market, not Independent.
If you want all the deals considered then you have to go IndependentI am a Mortgage Adviser
