ECB Rate Change
On 12 September 2024, the European Central Bank reduced its ECB Refinancing Rate by 0.25%. In addition, an adjustment between the main refinance rate and the deposit rate of 0.35% was also confirmed. As a result, we will make these changes to our rates:
- Tracker mortgage rates will reduce by 0.60% for all Tracker and Buy to Let mortgages that are linked to the ECB rate.
- This change will happen by 01 October 2024 and we will write to all our customers with Tracker mortgages confirming the new interest rate and the date it’s changing.

Here are answers to some questions you may have.
A tracker mortgage ‘tracks’ changes to the ECB rate. If the ECB decides to increase or decrease its rate, the rate on the Tracker Mortgage will go up or down by the same percentage.
The ECB has reduced its rate by 0.25%. In addition, an adjustment between the main refinance rate and the deposit rate of 0.35% was also confirmed. This means the tracker mortgage rate is going down by 0.60%.
We will write to all customers to inform them of the changes to their tracker mortgage interest rate from the end of September 2024.
The direct debit for your mortgage will automatically change, so you don’t have to do anything.
You will need to amend your standing order to reflect the increased mortgage repayment.
You will need to contact your Bank to make this amendment.
Our Standard Variable Rate and LTV Variable Rates are not affected by this change.
