    Some of these systems get a bit clouded by mergers and takeovers. I'm not sure if Lloyds follows the clearing bank example and collects in arrears, or if it uses the C&G system, which being a former building society involved collection in advance. Same goes for Barclays and Woolwich.

  • Thanks for your replies everyone, when should I expect a letter from them with the details on? It seems I will have to wait for that to be sure when/how much the payment will be.

    Normally, around a week after completion.

    Please come back to the thread and tell us the outcome. I'm curious.

    or

    - accrued interest from 5th to 30th debited with first month's normal payment on 1st December.

    As a building society, Nationwide collects payments in advance.

    Clearing banks, like NatWest, HSBC etc collect in arrears, so the first regular payment would be a month later.

    This is how both my mortgages from Nationwide have operated as regards the first payment.
