Paying your final instalment on Mortgage

So come February 2019 I will be in the fortunate position of having paid off my mortgage. ;-)
Having never been in this position before is there a set process that I will need to go through as want to make sure I'm paying no more interest to the mortgage lender and that all ends are tied off so to speak.
Was wondering if I needed to arrange a meeting with the Mortgage Lender to pay off any small amount that might be left to pay and sign some paper work.
any advise?

Just phone the lender and give them a date you want to make the final payment on. They will calculate the amount due on that date and that should be it. I paid off a mortgage on my previous house and, as far as I remember, made the final payment over the phone with a debit card.0

Wont they just do it automatically if its the DD amount? I.e. if you contracted payment is £1,000 per month and that's what you pay, then the remaining balance for the last month is £392.54, wont they just collect that amount?0
