I agree, competition is rife.

Last week HSBC 2 year fix was one of the best buys all round with a good rate, a week later and they are not even on the first page anymore when I search because of other lenders rate dropping constantly.

Wow! I locked in 1.29% for 5 years last week and thought I'd done well but 1.17% is even better (although with closure fee, Santander cashback and hassle of changing as s/e I'm not too disappointed in myself yet but if it falls more I would be!)
