Important update on fixed rate retention products
Some of our fixed rate retention products were withdrawn at 5pm on Wednesday 25 March.
We always aim to give customers as much notice as possible. However, please note that we reserve the right to withdraw products at any time.
If you had already secured a product through our Retentions team prior to this time, you will not be affected by this change.
If you’re considering a product transfer and have not yet secured a rate, please contact our Retentions team to discuss the options currently available.
These products are available for existing Saffron customers whose current mortgage deal is coming to an end.
If you’re an existing Saffron customer and your current mortgage deal is coming to an end, transferring to a new product could reduce your monthly payments and is simple to do.
We’ll write to you about three months before your deal ends to remind you about our product transfer options. You’ll also find our latest rates below, but please remember these rates can change at any time and without notice.
If you want to transfer to a new product, you have three options to choose from. Our rates are the same whichever option you choose:
Option 1: If you know what product you want and do not need advice, call us and tell us which product. It is important to understand that you will be fully responsible for any choices you make and will not benefit from the protections that come with receiving professional advice.
Option 2: You can speak to your mortgage broker for independent advice. They can manage the product transfer process for you but may charge a fee to do this. You’ll need to share the Authentication Code and your latest House Price Index (HPI) Loan-to-Value. You’ll find both of these on the letter we send you before your current deal ends.
Option 3: If you do not have a broker and need advice or want to make changes to your mortgage, contact our Mortgage team who can arrange this for you and answer any questions.
When you transfer products we’ll run a credit check but this won’t affect our decision. We don’t ask for proof of income or spending unless you’re making other changes to your mortgage at the same time (e.g. borrowing more money).
