Hi, wonder if anyone can help. Ive been overpaying by cheque or phone to Cheltenham & Gloucester over the past year but have stopped for a few months, does anyone know if I can just walk into Lloyds and op at the counter? We took the mortgage out with Lloyds.
Congrats to all the OP's this year - your all doing so well

Still, we've OP'd £1000 since starting the mortgage in February, and have brought our monthly payments done by £5, so feels like we've achieved something!!MFW 2016 #32 £1574.66/£1500:j:j0 -
The latest weekly update has been done - links in the first post. I've tested both and they're working so hopefully all can access one or both.
We've now collectively paid more than £260,000! Amazing effort - well done all.MFW 2015 #41 = £20,515/£20,515

Kitjos - yes I believe you can pay in the bank. If you telephone C&G and ask for their bank details you can also make a payment online.0

Hi, OP of £110 for May, I'm number 109. Not sure if I'll manage an overpayment next month as tutoring work is finishing, but exam marking is starting so looking forward to a big OP in July or August! Thanks for your hard work.0

Thanks for the reply. I've managed to get an online account with lloyds so I can now see mortgage balance etc, but can't see a way I could overpay 
. We have no other accounts with lloyds, would getting a current account alow me to transfer funds as an overpayment or do you know where to click if I get C&G's details? Thanks for your help, im chuffed ive managed to get online! x "Don't underestimate the value of financial security"
