Default Who's offering mortgages at the moment?

I'd like to pull mine from my current lender, and don't want to waste time asking everyone out there.

TIA

Be a bit wary of Santander, they had a right slating on Watchdog
Customer service is supposed to be NIL

I will agree with that thay are more than useless and are losing customers in the thousands, they have NO customer service at all and you can never get through to them to talk about something if you have a problem.

I would go with someone else TBH

Our business account is with Santander and they are shocking. Decent deals but when I go into my local branch knowone will talk to me as it's a business account and they don't deal with them accounts.
