There may be other charges specific to individual mortgage products. These will be explained in the product sheet, the European Standardised Illustration Sheet (ESIS) and your mortgage offer.

We’ll accept credit card payments but only to pay application and valuation fees.

* In certain circumstances, a full valuation will be carried out (see the main advance valuation fees above). If so, we’ll inform you of the fee payable before we process your further-advance application. If we introduce new charges or increase existing charges, we’ll tell you personally at least 30 days before it comes in. We may introduce a change that abolishes a charge or reduces the amount of an existing charge with immediate effect and without notice. Any changes in charges will be advertised in each of our branch offices.
