    The interest is charged monthly not yearly, so the more you pay each month, the more the capital goes down, and the less interest you pay.

  • Assuming a minimum allowable monthly payment of 2%, £300pm, could have them paid off in 12 months, with £229 interest.

    £200pm could see them off in 18 months, with £379 in interest.
