- Two-year non flexible tracker at 5.19 per cent (BBR plus 0.69 per cent)
- Two-year flexible tracker for advances up to £199,999 at 5.49 per cent (BBR plus 0.99 per cent)

UCB Home Loans managing director, Keith Astill, said: “Standardising interest rates at 5.29 per cent on all of our flexible fixed rate products provides us with a strong and clear position that enables borrowers to make a choice to fix their term for two, three or five years without being influenced by rate. The rates are still some of the most competitive in the market and along with our other recent criteria enhancements give UCBHL a very strong proposition.
Referring to the withdrawal of the remortgage offer, he said: "The remortgage offer was extremely well received by our brokers and customers. However, it was a limited offer and we’ve decided to remove it from our product range for the time being.”
