A massive £35bn-worth of fixed rate mortgages end their fixed rates this Sep and Oct - a 5yr high. Do nothing and anybody with one will likely move to a pricey standard variable rate (SVR), paying much more each month. So it's crucial to check your mortgage now.

What's more, there's a risk rock bottom rates (some as low as 0.99%) could rise. That's because the Bank of England has signalled it could raise the base rate, which underpins many mortgage deals, from its record 0.25% low as early as November. That'd almost certainly mean current best buys disappearing and variable rates rising.

While there's no certainty, and we've had such predictions before with no movement, with rates so low and unlikely to drop much further, why wait? There are HUGE savings to be had...

See if you can save £1,000s with our tried & trusted checklist...

Dig out details of your existing deal. You'll need to get to grips with the bits below to see if it's worth remortgaging (ie, switching to save).

a) What's the rate? Plus monthly payments & outstanding debt.
b) What type is it? Fix, tracker, discount, SVR. See Fix vs Variable help.
c) When's the intro deal over? Eg, when does the 2yr fix end exactly?
d) How long's the full mortgage term? When must it be fully repaid? Eg, in 10, 15, 25 years.
e) Will I be penalised? Any early repayment/exit penalties?

Critically, work out your CURRENT loan to value (LTV) - the proportion of your property's value you're borrowing. Eg, £90k on a £100k property is 90% LTV. For each 5% your LTV drops, usually until 60%, the cheaper the deal. So if your home's increased in value since you got your mortgage, you may gain. See LTV help for full info.
Nab a copy of our FREE 60-page Remortgaging 2017 Booklet. Your mortgage is likely your biggest expenditure, and just because you've done it once, doesn't mean it's the same this time around. So be sure you know what you're doing. Our updated guide takes you through it step-by-step.

Massive savings are possible if you're idling on your lender's SVR. As we said at the top, this is the rate most fixes and trackers revert to when intro deals end. They're often horribly expensive compared with shorter deals.

To show you the size of possible savings, here are some major lenders' current SVRs (some have cheaper versions for older customers), which now average about 4% - see SVR help for more.

Barclays 3.74% | Coventry BS 4.49% | HSBC 3.69%
Lloyds & Halifax 3.74% | Nationwide 3.74%
RBS & NatWest 3.75% | Santander 4.49% | Virgin Money 4.54%
Yorkshire BS 4.74%

So someone moving from a £150k mortgage with 25 years remaining at 4% SVR to a 2yr fix at 0.99% will save about £4,000 over 2yrs - even after taking £1,500 fees into account. See how this works for you: Compare Mortgages Calc.
Use your savings to secure a lower mortgage rate. The lower your LTV threshold, the better the deal you can get. Rates tend to fall for each 5% less you borrow from 95% to 60%, so use savings to get into a lower threshold and you can save big. For example...

If you've a £150k home, and want a £137k remortgage, that's 91% LTV, and the top 5yr fix is 3.89%. But use £2,000 of savings to reduce the borrowing & you'd be at 90% LTV, where the top 5yr fix is 2.39% - saving c. £1,400/yr in repayments alone.

See how pumping more of your savings into your mortgage can help you drop an LTV band.
It isn't just about the best deal, it's about making sure you'll be accepted. A rotten credit report or credit file error can torpedo a home loan application. So double-check yours ASAP - here's how.

Lenders must also obey strict guidelines to check if you can afford your mortgage repayments - not just at current interest rates, but also if they rocketed to 6-7%. They want evidence of income, bills, expenses, even eating out. So being frugal in the months before applying helps.

We're fans of 'affordability checks' - yet they're not logical for many remortgages, and ridiculously, people are being told they can't afford a CHEAPER deal, so are forced to pay more on their lender's SVR.

These rules stem from UK regulator the Financial Conduct Authority's interpretation of the EU Mortgage Credit Directive. We've been campaigning for an urgent review incl writing to the Chancellor, with some success - see Mortgage Prisoner Result. Please email if you've been trapped.
A good broker can match you to the right deal. Mortgages are complex and it can be tricky to know exactly what's best for you. A good broker can not only match you to the right deal - if you've specific circumstances they have often difficult-to-find info, eg, will a lender accept you if you live above a shop or if you're self-employed? See Top mortgage brokers.

However, a few lenders, eg, First Direct, cut brokers out and only sell direct to the public. So some brokers can and do exclude them - we suggest you use a broker alongside our mortgage comparison, which has all these deals.

Does your fix expire any time before April? You could still lock in a cheap deal NOW. Many lenders let you fix your rate 3-7 months ahead, so you can grab it right now and protect against top rates disappearing. But there are risks - see Long lock-in mortgage help.

Martin's 5 ways to cap credit card costs NOW

Don't wait for law changes, protect yourself. If you've credit card debt, REDUCE THE COST BY £1,000s

Martin This week, Labour announced - in a move to protect those stuck in a long-term debt quagmire - it wants to cap credit card interest so it can't be more than the amount borrowed. I think that's a good move (see my card cost cap analysis). Yet who knows if it'll happen, so if you've existing credit card debt, take control now with my top five tips...

Take 2mins to see if anyone'll cut your interest. I often talk about balance transfers - where you get a new card which repays existing cards for you, so you owe it instead but at 0% for, say, 40mths. Yet for most with ongoing debt the challenge is being accepted. So our Balance Transfer 0% Eligibility Calc shows your acceptance odds for each card. Even if all you can get is a year's 0%, it can still have an impact.

Even if your best odds are slim - say 20% - if cutting this debt's cost is your priority, go for it and cross your fingers. There's little to lose from one application and the upside can be huge, as Kelly told us: "Legend. Used the eligibility calc, got 35mths 0% and shifted £11,000 from 29.9%. Shocked by the savings." That's a saving of £4,900 if it's cleared within the 35mths.
Use existing cards to move debt where it's cheapest. This is a technique I call the credit card shuffle. In a nutshell, if you've two or more cards, check all their interest rates (APRs), then aim to move the debt where it's cheapest. Eg, if card A is 18.9% and B is 34.9%, ask if you've any credit limit left on card A; then ask to shift debt to it from card B, up to the credit limit. If asked, some providers (eg, Barclaycard & MBNA) may offer existing cardholders special cheap rates to do this.
'Snowball' to clear the highest APR debt first. Once your debts (incl overdrafts) are all at the lowest interest possible, focus all spare cash to clear the one at the highest APR as it's growing fastest - then just pay the minimums on the others. Once it's clear, focus repayments on the 2nd highest interest. This gets you debt-free far quicker; see full snowballing info.
Only one card? Beware minimum repayments. They are cunningly designed to only just cover the interest - when your debt drops, so does your repayment, keeping you near-perpetually in debt. Eg, a 30-yr-old borrowing £3,000 at 17.9% making just minimum repayments on a typical card could be 57 by the time it's clear, at an interest cost of £4,000. Check your situation with our minimum repayment calculator and read my trick to beat the trap.
Can't sleep at night due to your debts? If you can't cope or are struggling to repay even the minimum, get free one-on-one debt counseling from Citizens Advice, CAP, StepChange or National Debtline charities. They're there to help, not judge, and can put you in a debt management plan to take the pressure off. The biggest message I get after people go is "I finally slept last night".

At renewal? Combine comparison sites to find your cheapest at speed. They don't cover the same insurers, so more sites give a wider spread. Our current order's MoneySupermarket*, Confused.com*, Gocompare* and CTM*. (Why? See comparison order).
Not at renewal? Lock in a price up to 2mths ahead. Some insurers' quotes are valid for up to 60 days. These include Aviva* and Quotemehappy - see our list of insurers with lock-in quotes. If your cover's up soon, grab a quote now and if prices rise further you're quids in. If you can get a cheaper deal at renewal, just ignore the quote.

- Use trial & error to see if comprehensive's cheaper than 3rd party.
- Can you save tweaking your job title? Ratatat did: "Changed from accountant to auditor - I'm both. Saved £60."
- Adding extra drivers can save cash. If they're a lower risk, it can bring the cost down - eg, if you're young and adding a responsible older driver.
Don't want to switch? Haggle. Find the best price, then ask your provider to beat or match it. See Haggling tips.

THIS WEEK'S POLL

Do you support renationalisation of rail, energy, water and more? Those arguing for privatisation often focus on increased efficiency due to competition. Those against often say firms do what's best for shareholders, not for consumers. It's a complex argument, but we're really most interested in testing public sentiment, so are keeping it simple. Do you support renationalisation of rail, energy, water and more?

The younger you are, the more likely you are to use an app to access your bank... In last week's poll we asked how you access your bank most often, and 10,596 responded. Perhaps unsurprisingly, younger groups are more likely to use an app with 76% of women and 81% of men under 25 favouring the technology, compared with 17% of those aged over 65. Find out how other groups access their bank most often.

QUESTION OF THE WEEK

Q: I'm considering switching current account, but what happens to linked savings accounts when you switch? Are they closed as well? Resha via email.

MSE Rosie's A: Yes, your linked savings account will almost always be closed, though what happens to the money depends on your old bank. Some will move it to your (new) current account - others will transfer it into another savings account, which likely pays a lower rate of interest.

An exception is TSB, which won't close a regular saver if you close your linked current account.

For easy access, regular and fixed savings top picks see our Regular Savings and Top Savings Accounts guides.

Please suggest a question of the week (we can't reply to individual emails).

WOULD YOU PAY WITH YOUR... FINGER?

That's it for this week, but before we go...modern technology is transforming the way we spend our money, with contactless cards, Apple and Android Pay and even paying with your (smart) watch now commonplace. But last week a new method came along, as a supermarket in west London became the first in the world to trial 'finger vein' payment - allowing you to pay for groceries using just your fingertips. Watch how it works in our short video, then let us know what you think in our Facebook post: 'Is this the future of payments?'
