Hi all, I read another thread on this subject but it was quite a brief one.
My story is that I am currently with First Active on a fixed rate which is due to finish up next month. I have met with them and discussed a flexible offset mortgage which seems to suit us. Our loan to value rate is currently around 53% and we aim to take the mortgage out over 23 years. The plan is to save €200 - €300 month in the offset account and ultimately this should knock approx 4 years off the term of the mortgage.
I have been advised by someone that the product is not all it seems and that it is not worth doing however they won't give me any details other than saying First Active customer service is dreadful.
I was all set to go with this option but now I'm very unsure. Does anyone have any advice? Many thanks.
