## What changed

Bank of China last moved a rate on
    **Thursday 8 October**. Every rate is read each morning and has
    come back the same since.

[Every lender that publishes rates](/lenders), and
        [every rate move since capture began](/data/history).

## Beside it

Of 93 lenders with a variable rate anyone could take for a home you
      live in and pay down, 23 publish a lower one than Bank of China's
      6.18%. The nearest either side:

- [Summerland Bank](/lender/summerland-bank) 6.14%
- [TMCU](/lender/tmcu) 6.14%
- Bank of China 6.18%
- [loans.com.au](/lender/loans-com-au) 6.19%
- [Newcastle Permanent](/lender/newcastle-permanent) 6.19%

      **Does this look wrong? or could it be better**

Two different things go wrong here and they are fixed in different places. If a rate on
        this page does not match what Bank of China told you, it is usually one of these.

### The published data is wrong

Bank of China publishes these rates itself, under the Consumer Data Right. Nobody here
        types them in and nothing here can correct them at the source. If the feed is wrong, every
        comparison site reading it is wrong in the same way. Reports about a data holder's feed go
        to the Consumer Data Right, and published-data quality is on the ACCC's enforcement list.

Everything identifying the feed is filled in below. The one part left is what you saw.

### This page reads it wrongly

The rate is published correctly and this page has misread it. A band shown against the
        wrong loan type, a fee counted twice, a product that should be marked restricted and is not:
        that one is mine. [Tell me and I will fix it](/#fb), and say which lender
        so I can find the row.
