NR payment break

HI everyone,
i have received a card through advising i can take a payment break from october for a month. I am thinking about it but is it just a break from the capital payment - do they still take the interest part of my mortgage? or is is a complete month free?

thanks for any input - i will call them somtime today if no replys

    When you take a payment break interest will still accrue on the capital amount.

    Therefore, payment breaks are generally not a good idea for borrowers.
    In case you hadn't already worked it out - the entire global financial system is predicated on the assumption that you're an idiot:cool:

    It's a complete month mortgage free. You don't pay the repayment or the intertest. The interest is added to the overall amount of the mortgage.
