First Direct miscalcution of payments

Went to re-mortgage with 1st Direct on a reduced interest rate (was 2.99% now 2.19%) only to find my monthly repayments have gone up. After weeks of investigation it turns out I've been paying the wrong amount (Only a few £'s over per month) for over 2 years due to their software problems. I've been offered £100 compensation and the over payments returned - should I accept this or am I entitled to more??

Entitled to more for what?0

The overpayments would also have reduced the interest paid over the 2-year period so you're really getting more than £100 out of the deal.
Why not tell them to keep the overpayments against the mortgage, reducing future repayments even further?0 -
thanks I'll do that0

Entitled has become such a nasty word0
