RBS Mortgage Help

Hi all,

Just a quick query, wonder if any of the forum experts can help.

I'm currently in year two of a 30 year mortgage, capital and repayment. LTV is about 93%.

I'm currently in a but of a financial fix, but don't want to fall behind on mortgage payments - what with a young family etc. Are RBS open to a customer reverting to IO, or extending the repayment term to 35 years?

Just wondering whether there is anyone out there in a similar situation / experiences!

Cheers!!

    Best idea is to phone them and ask - your LTV might be too high but you can only ask. Have you worked out how much you'd save by extending the term?

    Changing to IO is about £250, extending the term about £100. Not massive, but every little helps!!!
