How much do you pay on your mortgage?

Apologies if this has been done before, but I'm just interested to know where my mortgage fits in with everyone elses. I'm not talking about overpayments - just what you have to pay per month.

I pay £361, and that is a repayment mortgage, currently at 3%. I have just reduced my mortgage, so it may come down I guess in the future, but that is what I've been paying until now.

    Not sure what's the point of this thread... if you're talking about a percentage of income, then that has a point but to just say "I pay x every month on a y percentage mortgage over w years" is a bit pointless IMHO.

    £269pm. Tracker @ 1.25%. However I am also paying £100pm into my Halifax guaranteed saver which is giving me a 6% return. Hoping for a tidy profit to overpay with!!

    I just wondered if what I paid was low or high compared to the "average". That's all. It seems that I'm about average. I know it's not really a comparison unless you work out the percentage of an average salary, but it was just out of interest.

    All you hear about in the press is of people with really massive mortgages and people who've withdrawn all the equity from their properties. Also both my brother and sister pay around £1000 pcm, so I wondered if my mortgage was really small or if I just have siblings with above average mortgages, and it seems to be the latter.

    Thanks for joining in, all those that did.
