The choice was a fixed rate or porting my existing mortgage deal of base rate +2%. I've read lots about the forecast for base rate and made the decision to keep my currently cheap tracker. Fingers crossed!!

Lenders are more interested in reducing their total mortgage exposure. So a porting request gives then this ability. By declining. In the hope that the borrower moves their business elsewhere.0 -
