Some 14,000 former Bank of Ireland customers transferred to Nationwide Building Society last year have had their standard variable rate increase deferred until a later date. The lender previously wrote to customers advising them that their interest rate will jump from 2.99% to 4.79% in March.

A Nationwide spokeswoman told Mortgage Strategy magazine that: “We reserve the right to increase the standard variable rate, but the concession remains in place until further notice. We will write to clients when it is removed.”
