I see two announcements from lenders this week about switching mortgages.
KBC
Haven
Now also accepting switcher mortgage applications - this wasn't an area they'd do previously. No news of any incentives. Their release today says that their normal residential criteria applies, which presumably means maximum 92% up to €400,000.
Usual caveat continues to apply - as tracker mortgages are no longer available for new customers, then you need to be aware that the lender offering the best rates now may or may not be so in the future.
