Important update following the Bank of England Base Rate changes
Today the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee announced a 0.75% increase to the base rate. The Bank of England Base Rate now stands at 3.00%. As a result of this announcement, we can now confirm the following:
All customers who have existing mortgages which track the Bank of England Base Rate will see their account interest rate change (subject to any product rate cap) in line with their terms and conditions. For most Base Rate Tracker products, rates will be increased no later than 14 days from today, Thursday 3 November 2022.
Our existing Base Rate Tracker products will be withdrawn 10pm Sunday 6 November 2022 and replaced from 9am Monday 7 November 2022 reflecting the Bank of England Base Rate increase.
