Mortgage rate peak

Options
Just so I'm understanding this correctly....if they predict 6% peak mid next year that will make fixed rates roughly 8-9%? 

It's really annoying because if I get a new fix early and pay the ERC I'll save about £77 a month at 8% but it's only about £16 at 9%

    Not sure I understand, have you got those two figures mixed up?

    Predicted savings would be lowest at say 7% and highest at 9% (If Base rate does get to 6%)
