    Looking to remortgage with Barclays to avail the grant for heat pump.
    At the same time thinking of getting the premier account for the Avios rewards and voucher.
    Is it better to get the account first and then re-mortgage? Or if remortgaging first, is there a timeline by which I need to apply for the premier account?
    Anyone done this recently?

    I’ll start off with “… apols, I’m rubbish with understanding mortgages” but I’ll try…

    Wouldn’t you be better getting the Premier Account first?

    You could then access the mortgage rates available to Premier account holders? See here https://www.barclays.co.uk/premier-banking/mortgages/high-value-mortgages/

    (whats the link to the heat pump grant? or are you just planning the remortgage will allow you some extra cash to purchase one with?)

    Thanks Andy.

    It’s a reward, not a grant (to avoid confusion with the government grant).

    Cheers – was completely unaware of that… annoying as we’ve just had a new flat roof (upgrading to an insulated one), and some new doors (though just checked, and the installers we used for those jobs aren’t listed anyways)
