This service is designed for customers who are comfortable choosing a new product without advice. If you’re unsure which option is right for you, mortgage advice is available.
Is this right for you?
Is switching without advice right for you?
Switching your mortgage product without advice may be suitable if:
- Your income and outgoings have not changed
- You’re happy with your current mortgage amount and term
- You’re confident choosing a new product on your own
- You’ve reviewed the product details and understand the terms
This option may not be right for you if:
- Your income has reduced, or your employment has changed
- You’re concerned about future affordability
- You’re considering interest only options or changes to your term
- You’d prefer guidance on which product best suits your needs
If any of the above apply, we recommend speaking to one of our advisers on 01509 389282 before making a decision.

What is mortgage advice?
Mortgage advice includes:
- Personalised Recommendation: An adviser will assess your income, outgoings, credit history, and future plans to recommend a suitable mortgage.
- Regulated advice in the UK, mortgage advice is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), meaning advisers must act in your best interests.
- Added Protection: If advice later turns out to be unsuitable, you may have the right to complain and seek compensation.
If you’re unsure whether switching without advice is right for you we recommend speaking to us before making a decision.
