    Charter new fixed rate bonds will be available from 5pm today :-) 
    Are they expected to beat the previous (withdrawn) 6.1% ??

    We'll find out in an hour! Rather hope so as have a Cynergy 1 Year maturing tomorrow. Would like an 18 month > 6.0%.

    Sorry Ford Money, too little, too late.  I hung on, but you weren't there for me.

    Ahh, thank you for the steer. Hopefully will still be there if Charter doesn't pass muster.

    Yeah, I'm wearing out my F5 key.
    The main page is showing a 1 year fixed bond at 5.9% in a button.  I'm not sure if that was the old one, as I only looked at the 2 year that was just over 6%.
