Thanks greent and SSS x
I can no longer get on the app or manage my mortgage, I have been kicked out! 🤣 I'm just waiting for a confirmation email now to say it is all closed and if I am due a refund (my dd may not have properly cleared when I paid the remainder amount off so i may have overpaid) I'm not holding my breath though!
Now thoughts turn to what's next, as I say it is time to get saving for an EF and a deposit for a new house. I need to have a think about target amounts though. Will discuss with DH over the weekend and let you know 😀I've been mortgage free once, so let's do it again!
