That's what i have been thinking as at the end of September, we can overpay by a significant amount and i have been playing with the calculator and there are pros and cons for both ways.:o
My head is swirling now. I think i will wait for the paperwork and see, must admit i was a bit surprised about the whole business.Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

Yep, that was one of my worries, especially as i went onto one loan about 4 years ago and it has just over 18 months to go. Think i just answered my own question there.lol:rotfl:Blackadder: Am I jumping the gun, Baldrick, or are the words 'I have a cunning plan' marching with ill-deserved confidence in the direction of this conversation?

At the end of the day you need to go with the plan that is best for you.I'd be really tempted though especially as you can overpay it.0

Yep, there is that too but aren't you sort of stuck with each other anyway Bob and financially linked etc. and well Mr Bob... Personally getting a loan never taught me anything but maybe it would have worked if I'd had my head screwed on. this might sound bad but the pain of it all taught me a very big lesson, has Mr Bob felt the pain yet?Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000
