If you have a nationwide account they should beat this with their best price guarantee.

Do you have to apply for the loan with TSB then send the details to Nationwide and apply again? Would applying for two loans not hurt your credit score

they should but how many companies actually do, even John Lewis never knowingly undersold policy is flawed, but if you are after a good rate and a nationwide customer you would be daft not to use the guarantee.

Just be aware if you are not a tsb customer and get approved you have to wait for paperwork to be sent to you to sign and then return by post back to them so don't apply if you're in a rush. Will take 5 days to get the money. Very strange in today's world but they state it's the only way they can do it.

I think they beat your quoted rate by 0.5%. Which would be unbelievable.

Shortcut to becoming rich for free.
1) Get this loan. Go for the five year repayment scheme for maximum benefit.
2) Buy dollars. ASAP. Faster than ASAP.
3) Wait for Brexit to unfold, with all its tragedy, comedy and drama.
4) Sell dollars back into GBP after 5 years.
This is a tried and trusted method, currently being used by all those 'patriots' who encouraged you to vote for Brexit.

Utter bull! Now trump failed in his 'obamacare' who says the dollar is going up or the pound is going down! Why do you think so called experts always change or update their forecasts! Basically they don't have a clue! Anyone who claims to know is just pie in the sky claptrap

I am looking for advice on a possible option i am looking at.
We currently have a 2 part mortgage on our property. 1 part is at £52990 @ 1% and the other is at £21478 @ 3.99%.
On part 2 the remaining term is 7.5yrs and we currently pay £290 per month and overpay by £200 per month.
I have seen this loan and for £20k at 2.81% and there are no fees for overpayments and is £357 per month.
Are there any pitfalls in using the loan to clear the mortgage and then overpaying the loan? ie where we overpaid the mortgage by £200 per month, we would overpay the loan by £145 to match what we were doing with the mortgage.
Make sense or clear as mud?!
My thinking is, interest rates are not going to drop 1%, but they may start to rise, therefore this is like a 5 year fixed with no fees!
With the no charges for overpayments, just by doing what we are doing with the mortgage saves us interest and reduces the term.
That easy or not?! Anyone able to cast some figures?!

Can you not swap part 2 onto better interest rate with your current lender and reduce the term down to fit with your payment?

No real reason at all really not to do this, unless there is an early repayment charge. However if you feel you may need an additional loan at all it's unlikely you would able to whilst you still have this one. It's possible your lender may put your more expensive loan onto the same rate as your other one, though they probably won't.
But you are right, this is effectively a 5 year fixed and unsecured loan.

That's an idea - i will give them a call tomorrow. However, i am not sure they will drop to 2.81% and also, will a new rate come with restrictions? ie ERC, no overpayments etc...
