Well if it comes it'll be a bit late for me as I fixed yesterday. $134K. Slit between 2 yrs @ 4.99 and 3yrs @ 5.15.
Existing bank, ASB. I guess they saw me as small fry who didn't warrant any cash.
It certainly matters who you talk with, though. The first one was clueless, so I asked for someone else to call me and he worked out to be quite good. It pays to persevere, sometimes!My blog. From personal experience.

or things are worse than you think
WITH Greece teetering on the brink of exiting the euro area, the timing of the Bank of England’s twice-yearly update on financial stability was not ideal.
As of two weeks ago, the outlook in the report was broadly unchanged, said Mark Carney, the bank’s governor.
But given the Greek crisis—and especially the events of this week—things are now looking worse.

There seems to be a disconnect in some peoples minds about what is good and bad.
Cutting interest rates may result in lower mortgage rate.
But it is an indication that all is not well in the economy.
Property does better when the economy does better - some people think property lives in it's own little world divorced from reality.
That may happen for a while but can't go on forever.
