    Hi,

    I have just added the mortgage to my online halifax portfolio which is great as it shows how much you currently owe.

    Could i ask how to add mortgage to our online portfolio? Thank you
  • Hi,
    This is my first post in any forum so apologies if I've done it wrong but my question is...
    I've got a new job which is 5 grand a year more than what I am on. I am use to living on what I earn at the minute so wondered is it worth overpaying on my mortgage or investing in an ISA for 5 years then taking what I get from that to pay a lump sum off my mortgage? I've 20 years left on my mortgage but don't want to work that long so want to reduce the years. I only have a small credit card debt which I have at 0% so no point paying that off early, apart from that I have no other debts.
    Any financial advice how to invest this extra income would be much appreciated.
    Thanks
