Hi guys,
Please help me to understand the loan.
Everythink looks okay, but I noticed, every month lloyds bank charge me back (interest charge 45 £
If they charge me that all 60 months that will be 60 x 45£ = 2700£
New total is 18984 + 2700 = 21684£
Please advice why they charge me extra interest charge?
Many thanks.

They don't charge you extra interest charge.
They're just charging you the interest agreed in the terms. It's calculated daily and added monthly.
Your total payable remains the same.0 -

You start with the amount you borrowed.
Each day, interest is added, increasing the balance.
You then make a monthly payment, reducing it back down by the amount of the interest plus some of the capital.
Over the next month, slightly less interest is added, as the capital is lower.
You make another monthly payment, which reduces the balance further by the interest and more of the capital.
And so on.0 -
Thank you very much.0
