Do I pay off Mortgage with ISA money?

Hi. I currently owe £30k on a mortgage on a 2.29% tracker. There are only 4 years left on it. I am wondering whether to pay off half of it with money saved in a ISA that is only earning 1.6%. If anyone has any thoughts on this I would appreciate it, or if there has been a similar thread that you could point me in the direction of? Thanks

If I had £15,000 savings in an isa and £30,000 mortgage. Then no, I would have to keep some savings, say maybe half and pay the other half to the mortgage.
If I had other savings elsewhere and felt comfortable enough, then I would pay the £15,000 to the mortgage.
Hope this helps.Always have 00.00 at the end of your mortgage and one day it will all be 0's :dance:MF[STRIKE] March 2030[/STRIKE] Yes that does say 2030 :eek: Mortgage Free 21.12.18 _party_Now a Part Timer from 27.10.190 -

Ooops, forgot to mention, check you do not have to pay a penalty for paying over the normal 10% allowed each year on your mortgage.Always have 00.00 at the end of your mortgage and one day it will all be 0's :dance:MF[STRIKE] March 2030[/STRIKE] Yes that does say 2030 :eek: Mortgage Free 21.12.18 _party_Now a Part Timer from 27.10.190
