Good News if you have a C&G mortgage...

Don't know if this is the relevant forum to put it in, but here's some interesting news that you may not know about.

I was really struggling to pay everything each month, so I rang my mortgage lender - C&G - to ask them about the possibility of a payment holiday. I thought if I could just get a month's grace, it would really help.

They amazed me by saying that I could have a 6-MONTH payment holiday, without it affecting my credit file. They roll the interest up and add it to your loan, so in effect, it's like taking out a small further advance.

But this has been incredibly helpful to not have my mortgage to pay for 6 months in this difficult time.

If anyone has a C&G mortgage and are struggling at this moment in time, give them a ring - it may well be worth your while.
