Morning All
Currently have a loan with Sainsbury’s called up today to ask for a settlement and was quoted a figure of £4259. However the advisor stated this included 58 days additional interest. My question
A- does this mean by balance is lower and if I were to pay almost the full amount minus the 58 days interest and then allow the last payment to come out by dd would I save this amount
2- how do I work out ho much 58 days interest is
APR is 14.9%
Loan taken out April/ May 2016
Repayment £150.25
Term 60 months
Amount £7500
Many thanks in advance

1. Normally, yes.
2. Calculate the daily rate and apply that over the 58 days. Or as a rough estimate, calculate a couple of months interest - ie 2 and a bit % of current balance.0
