RBS to streamline range

Due to high business volumes putting 'significant pressure' on service levels, RBS has taken the temporary measure to streamline all four brands.

Chris Pearson, director of intermediary mortgages at Royal Bank of Scotland, explained: “In order to protect service levels we have reviewed our product range and on Tuesday 1 April, we will be introducing new rates and will temporarily be offering a streamlined product range.

Pearson stressed RBS' commitment to intermediaries during current trading conditions.

Intermediaries will be able to produce KFIs and submit applications online for the existing deals up to midnight on Monday 31 March. Fully packaged paper applications must be received by close of business on Monday 31 March.

Supporting documentation for online applications must be received in the RBS Intermediary Partners’ Mortgage Centre in Birmingham by close of business on Monday 14 April.
