end of fixed rate mortgage

our fixed rate 2 year mortgage finishes in July this year. At the moment we are paying £420.00 a month on 127,750.00. Are we better letting the mortgage deal just run out as if I'm reading it right we would automatically revert to the barclays base rate? This would be less than we are paying now each month. Or are we totally off track here. First time we have had a fixed rate deal

    Hi, you would go to their Standard Variable Rate automatically yes.

    It will be worthwhile speaking to Barclays and seeing what deal they would offer you to retain your business. You may well be surprised.

    Failing that you are obviously also free to look to see what other lenders would offer, as most will make it totally free with legals and valuation to entice you in...

    Good luck
