    They would have been on the terms of your offer, which you signed. Therefore the 'advice' is to pay them or stick to the terms of your contract

    A redemption penalty of £6500 is rather steep, but if you have signed the terms and condictions, you will have to pay it.
    However I beleive The Chelsea Building Society do a cahback mortgage, other financial institutions will offer similar products. I'd try https://www.moneysupermaket.com or an IFA.
    Goodluck

  • are you moving to a new property clb? is your existing mortgage portable where you can possibly transfer your existing mortgage product/interest rate to new property, avoiding penalties ?
