Yep, happy easter bunny! Just need to sell them now , but as it's about the most secure looking loan FC have ever done, there's no rush. Especially if they start off at a big discount. Although as I write 3x£20 parts have just gone at par

And it's out, with 2.5% paid. If it's a mistake, serves them right for not reading this forum.
I can afford an Easter egg now.
If you view the comments for the loan you'll see the explanation for the "bonus" 0.5% in addition to the quoted 2% cashback offer. To be fair to FC, they admitted a mistake (which none of us here had spotted!) and made good on it.

It would be cynical to mutter about regulation.

It's annoying that bullet loans aren't distinguished in any way at all on the Loan Parts for sale listing. Not even a bullet.
I'd normally figure on a 36-month 8.5% being capped at 6.4% and compare that with the going rate. But if it's a bullet loan it's capped at 7.3% and when there's a whole bunch of them I won't know where I am.
I suppose we're still stuck with the 3% cap - they could have done with increasing it for 60-month loans, but they didn't. So that'll be another drag on secondary market prices.

I agree. I also wonder if we can assume all fixed rate loians will be bully, and vice versa? If not we have 4 flavours to choose among.
