What happens at the end of a 2 year fixed mortgage?

Hello, I am pretty clueless when it comes to mortgages so I would apprecitae any help.

I am currently paying 3.99%, which is £410 a month

Looking to possibly reduce my monthly payments

I have found a 2 year fixed rate mortgage, offering 1.99%, which is £310 a month. After the 2 years it switches to 3.99% SVR

My question is, after the 2 years, can I switch again to another fixed rate with lower payments?

Unless I'm being thick, it seems like I can save myself £100 a month for the next 2 years, then at worst go back to the rate I'm currently paying in 2 years time

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

    If that same product is available in two years time then yes.

    If interest rates rise in that time then you probably won't get as good rate again.
