Variable rates set to become major issue in General Election
quoting One Big Switch
The high interest rates charged on variable mortgages are set to be a General Election issue with more than half of people surveyed on the topic saying it will influence their vote.
The survey also shows consumers feel TDs do not understand the financial pain caused by high mortgage rates.
The poll by the One Big Switch campaign found that 53pc of respondents agreed that high mortgage rates would have a significant influence on how they will vote in the next election.
Some 65pc of consumers believe their TD has no, or very little, understanding of the financial stress caused by variable rates that are among the highest in the eurozone, according to a poll of 1,600 of the 6,000 mortgage holders who have registered with the One Big Switch.
