    Breakage fee advice

    I’m currently in the process of switching mortgage from BOI to EBS for the 2% cashback offer again. Last summer I fixed with BOI for 3 yrs at 3.1% (210k), 2 years of the term are left. I rang BOI to see what the breakage fee was and it was €450. They then queried why I wanted the breakage fee...

    PTSB & their hidden new rule for switchers!

    This only makes sense if the other 2% cashback mortgage providers are also enforcing this 2 year limit. EBS do not their 2% cashback offer to anyone who has previously availed of a 2% cashback offer. I'm not sure about BOI.

    Tax Relief for Mortgage Interest Paid

    It now looks like the Government has gone as far as it is willing to push the banks in terms of reducing variable interest rates, should we be pushing them to stop the gradual reducing of the tax relief for mortgage interest paid and reinstate it for all mortgage holder and not just for per 2013...

    BoI cut my SVR when I told them I was moving to KBC

    Clonback, That is a great outcome! Am in a similar position paying 4.05% SVR. We are not in arrears and actually overpaying our repayments with LTV of less than 75%. I threatened moving to KBC. The best BOI came back with was offering a 2 year fixed at 3.8%. Just wondering what you have done...

    Stuck with BOI

    "Coalition warns banks: reduce variable rates or face levy hikes"

    The Government could increase the TRS to 50% for variable mortgage holders only, until proper competition drives down the variable rates. This would effectively reduce the interest portion of repayments and not levy the banks at the same time.
