What about costs?

Broker Fees

We do not charge any broker fees for handling Santander product switches

Lender Fees

Santander do charge product fees on some mortgage product options. Where a product fee is charged it will be in your interest to cover the fee in order to access a mortgage product with a lower interest rate saving your money overall.

Residential product fees with Santander are typically £499 or £999, these may be paid upfront or added to your loan. You will always have no fee options available on Santander mortgage product transfer.

Buy to Let product fees with Santander are typically £749 or £1,749, these may be paid upfront or added to your loan. You will always have no fee options available on Santander buy to let mortgage product transfer.

When will my new Santander mortgage deal start?

If you are currently on the Santander standard variable rate (SVR) or a lifetime tracker deal, you will be switched to your newly selected Santander rate immediately.

If the early redemption penalty on your current rate has not yet expired, timescales will depend on your personal circumstances.

If your new Santander mortgage deal has a rate equivalent to, or lower your current rate, the early redemption penalty on your current rate will be waived, and your new rate will start without delay.

If your new product transfer rate is higher than your current rate, the new rate will be held to take effect when your current rate ends.

Can I cancel a Santander Product Transfer Mortgage Offer?

You can cancel a Santander Product Transfer Mortgage Offer up to 14 days before the new rate is due to start.

This is especially useful if you have secured a rate early in your rate switch window and find a lower rate has since been issued.

Santander BTL Product Transfer switches are handled in the same way as residential product switches.

If Santander have given you consent to let your property you cannot switch your mortgage using the residential product transfer options. In these circumstances the rates available to you will be those from the buy to let product transfer range.

In these this circumstances you should call Santander on XXXXXXX
