APR are meaningless for mortgages.
They have lots of options e.g 3 year fix 2.94 etc0 -
£24k paying £695 @ 3.99% paid off in 37months (£1536 interest)
If they will let you pay at £695
@ 2.49% 2y 1y 3.99% paid off in 3 years £996 interest so save <1 payment.
if not payment will be £360pm with £335 overpayment till the 10% is used up then save then another 10% year 2 saving will be even less.
You might be better off looking for some stooze money and maxing out the overpayments on the SVR0 -

Hi yes if they wont let us reduce term and set up new 2yr fix and 1 yr varible deal then ill just overpay everything we can till its done, i could more or less clear it now but want a little behind us just incase of work issues etc, but either way 3 yrs we will be done. and like you have said we will only save a months payment through switching rates, would prob need to pay another £10,000 off to save the same amount of intrest.:dance::dance::dance::dance::dance::dance::dance:0
