The new products include a 2-year fixed rate at 4.69% up to 85% LTV with no arrangement fee and a 5-year fixed rate at 4.95% up to 85% LTV with no arrangement fee.

All products come with free valuation and standard legal fees for remortgages.

James Hillon, head of mortgages at The Co-operative Bank - Platform's parent firm, said: “We are pleased to announce that Platform has today reduced rates on a number of its fixed rate and mainstream mortgages.

“We hope that the reductions, which place many of our products within the top quartile, will enable brokers to offer a comprehensive range of competitive products to their clients.”
