    EBS Trackers and Central Bank Review

    @MsBinky this is the pertinent question who is dealing with this EBS or AIB. It sounds from the comments here and in other places on the forum that there is huge confusion. From my reading the wording on both AIB fixed rate conversion forms and contracts were very similar to those of EBS The...

    EBS Trackers and Central Bank Review

    I am hoping to talk to Paraic Kissane this week to see if he has any information related to EBS. There must be a reason behind the silence in relation to their dealings with the tracker review.

    Thanks everyone - It appears we are all in the same boat. It seems that the following points are common to EBS customers involved in this. - The loan application form is being used as a reason for not dealing with our cases. - The wording on the fixed rate conversion form is vague and...

    Hard to get any concrete advice on EBS! Some get trackers back others don't. Makes sense - NO.

    Ebs tracker

    Hi there - a lot of people on here were in the exact same boat and some seem to have got their trackers back. I like you fixed for 3 years in 2006 and have not got it back - the details in question are the interpretation of 'applicable variable rate' which could have been seen as the .% above...

    EBS Tracker mortgages | Review?

    Hi Truffade That is the wording that was used on the fixed rate conversion form. The 'applicable variable rate' is in my opinion vague as my contract states that the rate will remain 1.25% above the ECB for the lifetime or duration of the loan. Therefore some might say that the 'applicable...

    Thanks for your reply am I correct in saying that you didn't leave your tracker mortgage (by changing to a fixed mortgage) and that your issue was related to the restructuring?

    EBS Tracker to Fixed + Contract Wording - Advice?

    Raging Bull, I am interested in your reply regarding compliance to consumer rights. I could be wrong but from what aidanob has written it seems that the financial ombudsman ruled against him because in his loan application there was a checkbox which said that if one switches from a tracker to...

    EBS Tracker to Fixed + Contract Wording - Advice?

    Hi Aidan - thank you forgetting back to me in such a detailed manner. When you say 'tracker rate application form' what do you mean? Was this the original application form that you filled in for your mortgage or did you change to a tracker in 2005 from another product? I have my loan offer etc...

    EBS Tracker to Fixed + Contract Wording - Advice?

    I thought that I could fix for 3 years and then return to the mortgage I got in the first instance. I thought that the variable rate of +1.25% would apply after the fixed ended and was never told otherwise. I am seeing lots of people on here getting trackers back because of wordings etc. and...

    EBS Tracker to Fixed + Contract Wording - Advice?

    I got an EBS tracker in 2006 and fixed in 2006 (mistake - hindsight is great). My tracker contract states that the interest rate was: Interest Rate Basis: Variable ECB Base + 1.25% When I fixed the conversion form stated that: I/We understand that when this fixed rate period has expired the...
