    Please post updated surrender value and maturity forecasts.

    What interest rate are you paying on the mortgage?

    Also ask them what the mortgage promise value is. Most Aviva plans have a payment they add to the value on maturity if its in shortfall. They dont go out of their way to let you know this but do have to tell you if you ask about it.
