I am definitely keeping payments up. I’m also getting obsessed with TTs and viewing my mortgage daily. 🤫Suffolk_lass said:
Oh well done - that interest reduction will be brilliant. Are you going to keep your payments as though it was still £13.21? It's another neat way of overpaying.WannabeSavy said:Morning!
#121 reporting March overpayments of £2495.66. (Using some savings) My mortgage deal is coming to an end and need to get LTV down to next band! 😊 taking my year to £4328.29. A new rate will reduce my interest on mortgage from £13.21 per day to £8.02 per day. 🤩 (locking it in for 5years)
Can you revise my target to £6250 please Julicorn. You are all inspiring me- well done all and thank you. The small bits really do add up. TTs are my new fav thing.
I also love TTs - they are really addictive but I am slightly obsessed with them
