  • Call your mortgage company and be open and honest. Tell them that all is fine but you have run into a temporary problem. Ask them if you can simly miss a payment. They may well agree. If you are up front enough they will work with you a bit.
  • Call your mortgage provider imeditalely. If you have a good payment record they will wait for a couple of days. Whatever you agree with them, confirm it in writing and stick to it. It will be alright, I had such a problem years ago and it doesn't even appear on my record with the building society.
  • Glad you are sorted and have paid now it appears that some people have not realised that you have now paid, I see that your credit card is now the issue, at least you have not been charged a missed payment or failed direct debit for the mortgage, this can be quite expensive and I can't see that anyone has mentioned this, I think £7 of interest is much better than your alternative. Well done for sorting it out anyway and good luck dealing with the credit card.
