Switchingdeal

If your existing special rate period is coming to an end or you want to switch to another deal, we've got a range of mortgages to choose from.

Early Repayment Charges apply and other fees and charges may apply.

YOUR HOME MAY BE REPOSSESSED IF YOU DO NOT KEEP UP REPAYMENTS ON YOUR MORTGAGE.

Reason to stay with us

Choosing a mortgage is a big financial decision. We can offer you a tailor-made range of deals to choose from, all brought to you from a provider who wants to give real help with real lives.

Owned by you

If you’re a member, the Society belongs to you. Not external shareholders, just customers and people like you.

Award winning

We have a string of awards from Best First Time Buyer Mortgage Provider to Best Offset Mortgage Provider.

Part of the community

From educational programmes to improving financial literacy and supporting people in challenging situations.

Reason to switch

A straight forward service that you can complete on your own terms and in your own time.

1

You can reserve your new deal

You can reserve a new deal up to 90 days before your current deal ends. If Early Repayment Charges apply, you can even delay switching until they no longer apply!

2

You can switch quickly

If you'd prefer, we can switch deal in a matter of days/hours. Commonly takes between 4 to 8 weeks if you were to move to another lender.

3

We've already checked your eligibilty

We only offer you deals that we know you're eligible for.

4

There's no credit check

Switching your deal with us will not affect your credit rating. Remortgaging with another lender would.

5

There's no need for a house valuation

Since you already have your mortgage with us. (Although a revaluation is required as part of the Buy to Let Product Transfer application process.)

6

There's no need for a solicitor

You won't need a solicitor to help you switch deal. You will if you remortgage with another lender.

 

 

What happens if I don't switch?

If you don’t do anything then your mortgage will go onto our Standard Variable Rate (SVR).

  • Your mortgage payments could go up or down
  • You can make unlimited overpayments
  • You can pay your mortgage off early without any Early Repayment Charges
