Mortgage advice FD or not FD

My Mortgage terms with the southerly rock! is due to expire in May. I am unsure of where to turn although the new FD rate caught my eye at 5.25 and £99 fee as advertised in the business pages of my newspaper.
Am I right in quoting these fee's or is there something else I should be considering i.e. fee's or hidden catch's?
Is is the case that I maybe tied into their variable rate for three years for example?
Thanks in advance

No catches. The only other fee is a valuation fee.
There are early repayment charges if you leave during the fixed rate term but not afterwards.
