Regulars in the 2010 thread may recall that I use a structured format to log my progress. No change here on the 2012 thread.
Overpayments go out on the first of the month (can't OP earlier than that) and I made an overpayment today of £1,112.59:
#29 - Overpay by £10,400.00.
Month: Ideal Pay / Ideal Total / Ideal % / Actual Pay / Actual Total (Diff) / Actual %
January: 866.67 / 866.67 / 8.33% / 862.59 / 862.59 (-4.08) / 8.29%
February: 866.67 / 1,733.33 / 16.67% / 1,112.59 / 1,975.18 (+241.85) / 18.99%
Total overpaid: £1,975.18
Meaning I'm ahead by 241.85 already. For those mildly curious as to the amount - it's £2k minus the standard mortgage payment of £887.41 - off to update google docs...
