    I am happy the interest rate been so low .
    I have an interest only mortgage at 0.68%
    My ISA is paying 3.1% .
    The interest on my ISA covers the mortgage .
    Mortgage interest is £27.99 per month .

    Our mortgage (repayment not interest only) is set at the base rate so my monthly payment has gone from £750 a month when we bought 5 years ago to £450 a month for the last 3 years meaning we have been overpaying on it and taking a major chunk out of the balance. I hope it stays like this for another 3!!
