    Hi,
    First time boards user here, and am hoping someone can help.

    iv got a 20 yr mortgage with BOI on my family home, and have just finished the initial 3 year fixed term.

    I have now been offered the following:

    - Variable LTV rate of 4.2%
    - 1 year fixed LTV rate of 3.4%
    - 2 year fixed LTV rate of 3.25%
    - 3 year fixed LTV rate of 3.1%
    - 5 year fixed LTV rate of 3.3%
    - 10 year fixed LTV rate of 3.95%
    - Tracker Variable Rate

    Can you please advise on which i should go with now? or please take the poll.

    much appreciated.

    What rate is the tracker variable?

    Switch is the best option (unless the tracker rate is favourable). You can get 2% cashback with EBS and then just switch again after you get the cashback.
