If Overpaying does bank recalculate monthly amount?

Planning to overpay from this month. I am on a svr mortgage of 4.00% on a mortgage of £166,000. When I make an overpayment does the bank recalculate my monthly mortgage amount each time? Thanks

    you will have to ask them
  • All the ones I've had experience of will keep the monthly amount the same even if you overpay. This results in the mortgage being paid off quicker instead.
