Tracker mortgages have become popular
The tracker mortgage has become a popular product in the UK. When borrowers
are looking to remortgage, and it’s obviously tempting to be attracted
to the best mortgage rate on the market, which often tends to be a discount
or a tracker type mortgage.
Tracker mortgages are often suited to borrowers who are looking for lower initial payments and can take the risk that their payments may well increase at a later date.
A tracker mortgage is a variable rate mortgage which always tracks
the Bank of England’s Base Rate. Your payments will change in accordance with external market interest rates. You will quickly benefit from any potential changes, plus the rate on your tracker mortgage always maintains the same differential between the rate you pay and the interest rate set by the Bank of England.
You will need to be aware that the interest rate tracks whatever rate is set by the Bank of England with a constant differential.

I was transferred to a "Account Closing Rep" who tried to convince me to stay with the company. My current interest rate was 22% and he offered to lower it to 8% if I stayed. I almost decided to stay with them, but realized that paying in cash is always better than paying with credit.
So maybe you just need to call and ask to cancel your card in order [...]
