    SMUG post for today.

    I just opened my mail and have been advised by First Direct that they are reducing the interest rate on my offset mortgage from 5% to 4.5%.

    Thus, they are passing on the full cut !!! Not many people can say that.

    No, just you and X000 other FD customers.
    I am not qualified to give the above advice!

    The original point and click interface by
    Smith and Wesson.

    Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

        Not necessarily true because it depends on the type of mortgage, but I must admit after reading yesterday that parent company HSBC were not reducing their rates, I am very surprised indeed to get this good news !!

                So let me get this straight. You're smug because you're paying 4.5% on a huge loan on a massively depreciating asset.
                Good, the economy needs mugs like you.
