WBC lifts fixed interest rates

hmm, i hope the rates dont increase too much before our house is built... i was hoping to lock in a big chunk at a good fixed rate.

i reckon banks are just playing mind games.. they are anticipating RBA to make more cuts and want people to fix their loans now.. anyway this is just my opinion.. fix or stay variable is up to you.. do what you think is best for yourself..
All good to say that, but the banks didn't even really pass on the last RBA cut, so what difference will more cut's make?

Could the slower timing also being due in part to the sheer volume of loans coming through, and the greater market share of loans held by the big banks making them less competitive on rates than they were a couple of years ago?
It's just a staff decision made according to bank pricing policy, normally given instantly.
