Before you get started
Important information
If you are currently in a fixed or discounted deal period you can start the switch process up to a maximum of 180 days before your current deal expires. Any new deal can be completed without penalty during the last 3 months of the current rate. Please indicate on the online application form whether you would like your rate to change as soon as possible, or after the expiry of your current rate.
If you have previously made lump sum credits and/or overpayments to your mortgage with a view to using our borrow back facility in the future, by transferring to a new deal you will lose the ability to withdraw these funds.
If you select a fixed rate mortgage product you will not be eligible to link any offset accounts against your mortgage. If you currently have an offset mortgage any offset account linkage will cease when a fixed rate comes into force.
Any application to switch rates will result in the recalculation of your monthly payments to the minimum amount required to repay the mortgage within your originally agreed term. Where you have been making overpayments or offsetting balances against your mortgage with the intention of repaying your mortgage early you will need to contact us after the completion of the switching application. We will then be able to reinstate the overpayment amount required to reach any early repayment goals that you have.
If you are confident in choosing your own mortgage product and don’t need advice you can switch online.
Alternatively, if you require advice, our mortgage advisors are happy to discuss options with you. Our team are here to help you select a product which suits your individual circumstances whilst also being able to discuss other potential changes such as a change to the term of your loan.
If you are experiencing financial difficulties or have recently experienced a change in circumstances which may impact your ability to make your mortgage payment we recommend that you contact our mortgage team as soon as possible so that we can discuss your individual needs.
Switch your mortgage online
You can switch to this mortgage online if:
- You still use the property in the same way, e.g. it’s still your main home.
- Your financial circumstances have not changed and you can continue to afford your mortgage payment.
- You don’t want to change your borrowing amount and want to keep the same term
- The mortgage term does not run beyond when you expect to retire from work and you have not incurred any mortgage arrears within the last 6 months
- You don’t want to add or remove any parties to or from the mortgage and you don’t want to change the repayment method
You will need your mortgage account number to switch online. You can find this on your mortgage statement or other mortgage related letters.
