On the mortgage deal I have, you can only make 1 overpayment in January each year, so have made the most of it and overpaid £10k today.
My fix rate deal ends in October, so wanted to pay off a big chunk to take advantage of 60% LTV rates when I switch. My target this year was to overpay £12k, so hopefully I can pay a bit extra off when remortaging.0 -
No 15 here. Just made the first overpayment of the year. £5002014 MFW 99 - Overpayment Target £4000/£4000

Still plenty of overpayments coming in as we near the end of the first month.

Also a few from the Googledoc. Mrsyallop, My Life, Lulabelle1, and a small op from MoneyMission who was determined to make a small payment despite a tough start to the year.0 -

Final update for January : £360.80 paid in total for the month.
Definitely won't be this high in future, just extra due to left-over Christmas money.
