New products but only for new customers

1
I have a RIO mortgage with the Hanley taken out nearly 5 years ago. I have 2 issues:-1) recently they introduced a new RIO deal with a lower interest rate but specifically prevented me from moving to it --- just for new customers only. I thought this practice was frowned on these days 2) there have been 3 BOE rate reductions recently but the Hanley has not yet reduced its SVR Reviewed on: 7th February 2025
