    Happy New year to everyone.
    Made 1st overpayment today of £102. Did not change DD when rate went down last month. OP may be more if rate went down on 1/1. Not had letter yet. I will update in a few days.
  • Hello :hello:

    Another lurker here!

    Please can you add me to the list? I would like to overpay £1,000 on my mortgage this year. I managed £200 last year :o but I didn't start until October.

    I been really inspired by all the diaires on this forum and I would like to start to make an effort to clearing my mortgage early (albeit a small one!).

    Hi

    MFW 181, overpayment this month £446.89 paid yesterday, on target for OP of more than £3000 this year if everything goes ok. Thanks to Zavarony for keeping the OP list. It really helps my motivation that I know the target is in writing at the begining of the year.

  • Hi, first post but been lurking for a while :)

    May I be added to this MFW 2009 list as believe it will be a great incentive :)

    Purchased a shared ownership flat about three and a half years ago, got a mortgage for only 40%, I was living in SE Asia so when returned to the UK had very little to offer as a deposit.

    Currently got one and a half years left in a fixed mortgage (4.84% with Abbey) and pay £382.58 a month. Not sure if I can overpay every month as Abbey will only accept a minimum of £500.

    Should be receiving my annual mortgage report this month, believe I've around £60000 (ish) left to pay.

    £3,600/£0.00/£0.00


    Thanks...
  • Hi, I'd like to join you please, I think this sounds a great motivation!

    Mortgage of £175,000 taken out in January 2007. No overpayments in 2007, but £3000 saved last year, ready to pay off the mortgage.

    My target for 2009 will be to overpay by a total of £4000 - it'll be a challenge!

    Thank you, and good luck everyone!
