Mark Arnold, head of mortgage and savings at Barclays, said: “Christmas can often be an expensive time of year and the changes we are making are designed to help customers save money, whether they are homebuyers or homemovers. Introducing these new rates, with many offering a £0 product switching fee, will benefit our customers and may help to ease the financial burden involved in buying and moving house.”
