  • So it looks like the little overpayments do affect my natwest loan. I am expecting a copy of my loan agreement but today got a letter about my first overpayment (£5). Basically they add it to my monthly payment and make a partial repayment charge.

    Normal payment = 148.71
    Extra payment = £5
    Partial repayment charge = £5.08
    Partial repayment gross amount = £153.71
    Partial repayment net amount = £148.63
    Final date = July 2021
    Final payment = £102.36

    Now I need to see what they £20.55 OP will do to the loan. Still think it's best to add the extra to the initial monthly payment, will after the first time I've done it.

  • So finally an update

    I have just started a DMP with Payplan which includes my loan + overdraft + 2 catelogues. I am still continuing to pay my credit union loan via my wage as well as my credit cards which will all be paid off by the summer.
