rbs is charging £8.95 per month for contents and building insurance combined!!!!!

Wow! Although I suppose new customers/risk makes sense. But fair play mate thats Good.
 
3.14% fixed for 2 years is a good deal, but not amazing. I'm getting a lot of my clients on 5 year fixed rates, makes them bullet proof when the madness happens with interest rates going through the roof.

£8.95 a month for buildings and contents????? That is stupidly low, I'd read the T&Cs tbh.

Find out what the rebuilding cost is?
Find out what the excess is?
Find out what your personal posessions cover is?
Find out if that includes accidental damage on both the buildings and the contents?

If it doesn't include any of that then it's not worth the paper it's written on

What sort of rates are goin out on the 5 year fixes mate? Lot's of people don't think interest rates will shoot up for a long time yet
 
4.99% fixed for 5 years is a fab rate

rates will shoot up I think in 12 months or so

My current fixed rate runs out in June next year (Pretty sure it's around 6.8% at the moment) - Do you reckon i'll be able to get a better deal than that next year or do you reckont they'll shoot up that much that i'll be looking at round about the same as i'm paying now

Obviously no-one really knows but thought i'd get an idea
