The building society launched the products as a trial for first-time buyers who had a 10 per cent deposit in June, but has since lent £300m to almost 1,000 borrowers.

Britannia said the trial was always intended to be for a limited period only and it has now reached its lending limits for those deals.

As a result the lender has reduced the LTV down to 85 per cent.

In a statement the society said: "Britannia remains committed to helping first-time buyers and our mortgage range offers a wide choice of options including fee-free deals, long-term fixed-rates (up to 15 years) and the share-to-buy mortgage.

"In the coming months we will continue to review our mortgage range in line with market conditions."
