Switching from EBS to PTSB?

[Caroleia]

Just noticed this article in todays Indo headed 'bank bucks trend with low variable rates on new mortgages' - sorry can't link as new poster
If anyone has read this article do you think it looks like PTSB will accept switchers to the 3.95 rate? (as opposed to first time buyers only)
We have an LTV of 50:50 sounds like we would qualify under that criteria anyway
Loving the thought of taking our business away from ESB after their latest callous rate hike.. am planning to call them on Monday

I don't think that ptsb are doing switchers

Anyway, a year ago, ptsb were 2.5% dearer than AIB. With SVRs, who knows which will be cheapest next year?

true Brendan. And we'd have to factor in the cost of conveyancing, and also keep an eye on insurance policy changes. I'm still going to check it out though..
