I am currently pay £680. To calculate my overpayments i worked out what a repayment mortgage would cost, i got this at £428, therfore by my calculations im overpaying by £252 a month, if this is correct i will clear all the debt in 4.3 years. Am i correct...

£33000 @ 2.5% paying £680 takes 52 months, 7 years would be £4290 -
