Anticlimax of affect of Int rate on tracker

Anyone else feeling slightly underwhelmed by the affect of the rate drop on their mortagage. I'll save £37 a month, which yes over the 2 years terms will almost pay for the product fee, but can help but wish it had done more!

Here's hoping for 0.0% next month!

    We'll save about the same. Been on a tracker since 2010 though so it's still fairly exciting as it's the first movement in the whole time we've been tracking. :)
