Base rate now stands at 5.25%
There's more misery for local home owners with variable or tracker mortgages or those looking to secure new fixed rate deals.
It follows today's rise in the base rate to 5.25 per cent.
Charges are also set to increase for some loans and credit cards that don't offer fixed interest charges.
In contrast savers will benefit from the rise.
