Written by the company

RateSwitch is a free mortgage rate alert service for UK homeowners. Register your current mortgage details, tell us the rate you want to monitor, and we'll watch it for you - notifying you by email the moment your lender reduces it. Lenders can reprice their deals at any time, often with no warning. Most homeowners only find out when it's too late. RateSwitch fixes that. The service is built around product transfers - switching to a new deal with your existing lender - which means no credit checks, no affordability assessments, and no paperwork. Just a simple alert, and a better rate when the time is right. It's completely free. No hidden fees of any kind.

Rate Switch - one of the smartest tools we’ve used

Rate Switch was recommended to us ahead of our renewal and honestly, it’s one of the smartest tools we’ve used. It allowed us to monitor how rates were moving and set alerts for better deals. It gave us a level of visibility and control we just hadn’t had before.

It was incredibly useful for tracking trends, comparing options, and making more informed decisions about our mortgage.

Lee was brilliant, friendly, approachable, and clearly knows his stuff. He made everything feel straightforward and was genuinely helpful throughout.

If you’re coming up to a mortgage renewal and don’t want to just default onto whatever your lender offers, Rate Switch is absolutely worth using. It’s a really clever product backed by great service. We’ll be using it again for sure.

"One of the smartest tools we've used" is such a huge compliment, and it's great to hear the new version of RateSwitch has done exactly what it was redesigned to do - give you the visibility and control to monitor rates and make more informed decisions ahead of your renewal.

Thank you so much for your review - we’re really pleased RateSwitch proved useful.

Amazing service. £456 saved!

We secured an initial mortgage rate with RateSwitch a few months' ahead of the date we needed it. Their tool then monitored this, and notified us when our provider (Halifax) lowered their rates. That same day we were switched over to the lower rate which is going to save us £456 over the two years and we barely had to lift a finger. We couldn't ask for more!

Really pleased the Halifax rate drop came through so quickly and saved you £456 - that's exactly what we're here for.

Thank you so much for your review - we’re really pleased the new version of RateSwitch has proved useful.

The service has been completely rebuilt as a free rate alert tool for homeowners, so it’s great to hear it’s doing its job in what is a pretty volatile market right now.

Very Cool RateSwitch!

When my mortgage rate was nearing renewal, I set up RateSwitch to notify me when the rate dropped. It was incredibly accurate and timely. I was able to make significant savings in my monthly mortgage payments without having to check the rates … it was set up automatically and when it dropped low enough, I confirmed the rate with my mortgage broker. What a cool and practical website that has helped me save $14,000 over a 5 year period!! THANKS!!!

Saving £14,000 over five years is a fantastic result - and exactly the kind of outcome we're hoping to deliver on a national scale going forward.

I came across RateSwitch and founder…

I came across RateSwitch and founder Lee through a friend’s recommendation and had an excellent experience. From our first conversation, it was clear that RateSwitch stood out from other brokers I’ve used in the past. I explained our mortgage situation, and Lee took the time to understand it in detail.

What truly set RateSwitch apart was Lee’s use of his custom rate monitoring software, which he’s spent the last few years developing. Throughout a series of calls, he scanned the market in real-time, identified provisional deals, and secured offers while maintaining us flexibility. We ultimately finalised the best deal a few weeks before our mortgage term ended.

This transparency and proactiveness gave me complete confidence that Lee was genuinely focused on securing the best outcome for us, not just the highest commission. Communication was excellent throughout, especially appreciated the personal touch of voice notes alongside email.

I would highly recommend Lee and RateSwitch. The use of his innovative rate monitoring software as part of the service puts him far ahead of any other broker I’ve worked with.

Seamless, professional & helpful

Chris was smashing. He’s super personable, really helpful and made the process of securing a new mortgage deal utterly painless. He called when he said he would, did all the heavy lifting and got us a great 10 year fix which I’m relieved to have pinned down before the rates went up. I’d highly recommend the service Chris provided. 10/10 :)

Highly recommend!

Lee goes above and beyond. Mortgaging and re-mortgaging our house (after our 2 years fixed contract was up) was so easy, quick and painless. Highly recommended for quality service. We won’t use anyone else!

Lee from Rateswitch gave A+++ advice

Fixed rate of 2.03% ending 1st September so needed advice. Found Rateswitch on Perkbox at work so sent an enquiry. Lee contacted me and within 24hours of speaking to him I now have a 5 year fixed of 3.04%. One of the best rates available. Prices shot up by 8pm that day so massive thanks to Lee for rushing the new deal through for us at the better rate!!
Lee is so easy to speak to and no question is a problem. He's very thorough giving the best advice and so friendly but professional. Highly recommended and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Hope he's still there in 5 years time!!

Excellent service

Lee has been my advisor since I bought my first house - he’s just fab! So helpful, professional and gives you his all. He explains everything so well which helps me as figures are usually so confusing! I’ve already recommended him to so many people and wouldn’t ever go anywhere else for my mortgage rates

I have used RateSwitch multiple times…

I have used RateSwitch multiple times when looking for better fixed term deals for my mortgage. Each time Chris has been very friendly, listens to what I want and listens to all the questions I ask. Very efficient service that set me up on a new mortgage rate in less than 4 hours! Very impressive and highly recommended

Lee explained everything throughly so I understood the process and was professional and polite throughout. Nothing was too much trouble. It was so much easier using RateSwitch than doing it myself. Thanks for helping me save some money!
