The number listed for C&G takes you to S!!!!horpe Mortgages.
Instead I've just used the normal C&G mortgages number 0800 028 0639, and they were very helpful - sending me a cheque for £151!
The Nottingham Building Society Release Fee was £50 in Feb 2001 and £55 in their Feb 2002 Mortgage Fees and Charges leaflet.
We were charged £175 in October 2006.

Hi I had a mortgage with Notts BS but it had 2 linked loans added will they say they charged me for 3 mortgages or just the 1.I have asked for 175 I was charged less 50 =125 but think they may say that it is 3x50 , hope not!!!
Exit fee 5 years ago was £ 100.
Had a letter + cheque for £ 99 in the post from them today.
Please note they also try to charge £ 25 for every further redemption statement after the first one. I challenged them on that and they refunded that as well, albeit with a miffed letter.
This one seems to have been completely overlooked so far. I had a mortgage with them upto 2002. They have since renamed / rebranded themselves as "Mortgage Trust" and these days no longer do homeowner mortgages but only specialist buy-to-let mortgages.
This not being quite straightforward, it took me a bit of effort and the help of the Mortgage Lenders Council's website to dig up all this info, but they promptly paid up to the tune of £ 50.
My mortgage was transferred over to the Woolwich, from the Halifax, late in February and Halifax charged us £175.00, for a "repayment Administration Fee". We originally had a ten year fixed rate mortgage with them, that started in December 1993. Although we changed to a variable rate, from May 2001, would the admin fee repayment possible be that which was in the 1993 contract, or the 2001 contract (even though the latter was treated as a deed of variation, rather than a remortgage)?
£175.00 must be the current fee, not the one entered on the table.
The exit fee at the Portman BS was £55.00 in November 1998 and was still that amount when my mortgage went through in May 1999. (I've got the original documentation).
I wrote to them in early Feb and despite a reply saying I would get a further response in 14 days I have heard nothing.
icecoolbabe -
Definitely worth chasing: I had almost instant success with them - see my earlier post. No prevarications, no 14 days, just a cheque in the mail.
Good luck!

I redeemed my mortgage with Abbey National after approx 3.5 years.
I was charged a "Repayment fee" of £225.
I rang them today (0845 600 0346) and they advised me they would have to send a form to me for completion, on receipt of this completed form they would review my claim.
Here's hoping!
March 07 - mortgage outstanding £42,364
Overpayments of £58.27 each month & additional funds from my Neopigmy! (Moneypig!!)
