    I see what you are saying, but is it not better to stick 10k on your mortgage at 4 odd % and pay it off comfortably than paying off credit cards and getting bank charges cos its a bit too much each month??

    It depends how long it takes to pay it off. Check out the snowball calculators on the debt free wanabe forum to see the difference in the interest paid.
