Santander pulling 3.99% five-year fix while Nationwide and Halifax lower rates
Santander for Intermediaries has announced it is withdrawing its 3.99% five-year fixed rate mortgage eight days after launching it. The rate will be withdrawn on Friday 21 February at 10pm.
Banks and building societies are making a range of price increases and rate reductions, so while lenders like Santander and The Co-operative Bank have raised their prices, Halifax and Nationwide are lowering theirs.
From tomorrow, Friday 21 February, Nationwide is reducing selected fixed rates across our New Business and Existing Customers Moving Home product ranges by up to 0.33%. Halifax is also making rate reductions of up to 0.20% on selected fixed-rate products and lowering some remortgage rates by 0.15%.
Aaron Strutt, product director at Trinity Financial, says: "Santander has been receiving a huge amount of applications for its sub-4% rates and given the rise in funding costs over the last couple of days, it was only a matter of time until the bank was going to withdraw some of its products.
"Santander is keeping its 3.99% two-year fix, and Barclays still has the 3.99% five-year rate, although they may not be around much longer. There is still time to secure Santander’s best buy deal, but borrowers will need to be quick."
