Hi we have a mortgage with Barclays - if has it been impossible to contact them over the last few days to speak to their mortgage team.
We have £98 k on repayment and £392k on interest only - both on same interest rate
We have a lump sum to pay into the account of 40K (which we have a latitude to do)
However we are going in circles as to what is the best bit to allocate it too - our view is the repayment 'bit' but is that right and why ?
Can anyone advise?
