If you have a C&G mortgage...

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.

I am with C & G at the moment and, although I am not struggling it is good to know this. I have been with C & G for nearly a year now and, I must admit I have been very impressed with my product and their service.Excited for Florida - May 2012 :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:0

Have no idea if everyone would get offered it, but it's well worth asking the question if you need it. And I would imagine they probably won't do it if you're already in arrears - so if that's likely, get the payment holiday arranged quickly!
Glad to have helped.0
