If it's not to tell you off about anything, likelyhood is it's to sell you something!

they probably want to do a financial review of your account
i.e. sell you something you dont need ...just say no.0 -
If you've cleared everything then you are not making them any money, so they're trying to lure you in.
Resist, man, resist!

if they offer to lower the apr% off my loan i would take it..
or make it so i can make overpayments on the loan..
thats all i would care about right now0 -
So why not seize control of the call when you finally speak to them, and tell them that you are glad they've called as you were going to ask them something anyway...?Mortgage at outset (May 2004): £80,000

lol i doubt they'd call to offer to lower the APR on your loan - or if they do they'd want you to borrow more0
