    oh and just a minor update. The mortgage is now sub 100k (and won't creep back over with interest - like last month)!
    Mortgage Jan 2013 £116677
    Jan 2014 £102k
    Target Jan 2015 £95k
    2013 MFW no149 £10601/£10601 target reached
    2014 MFW no36 £2880.37/£3436 ahead of schedule
  • No. 128 with an overpayment of £500 for May. Although this may leave things very tight for rest of month was desperate to keep payments on track and means that I am now in the 130s, albeit just.... Belt is well and truly tightened.

    Has anyone else tried to make a faster payment to HSBC? I tried to make an overpayment today and it said HSBC does not accept faster payments and to use other payment methods like a cheque or BACS.

    No. 127 putting in a desperate £91.29, which was made off pennies moved across and accumulated, and an unexpected mystery shopping payment.


    Still not enough to keep my status to "Ahead of Status" text :(

    No. 48 reporting in, having not posted at all up until now :o. Sorry :(.

    Total overpayments Jan - April total £2,458. If you can put it all against April I promise to do better (OP and posting-wise :o).

    Great overpayments here folk :T
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
    :) Mortgage Balance = £0 :)

    #150 checking in with my standard £500 OP for May.

    Nothing much to report. Seem to be spending money like water at the moment!
    What goes around comes around.....I hope!

    Thanks Black Taxi. I went into HSBC today to ask and she said nothing had changed at their end so I'll try again.
