Product Rate Switch

5
I was concerned that I would not be able to do a product switch to a 2 year fixed rate because my mortgage ends in 18 months, however having explained my situation with Kerion, he soon put my mind at rest when he told me that it would not be a problem, as FBS will extend my mortgage to fit in with the new 2 year fixed rate.
