How far can they go before a uk bank comes in and cherry picks?

what about fixed rates for existing customers who are on variable rates?
Is it possible that the variable rate is going up 0.5% but that the fixed rates will remain the same (for existing customers who later decide to move to a fixed rate)????
I've listened to all the reports on this but have'nt heard 1 which clarifies this for me.

But I suppose it's a gimme that if the variable goes up, the fixed rates rise by the same rate usually

AIB do not differentiate between new and existing customers in relation to fixed rates.
Fixed rates will increase.
