    Good morning, I'd like to join please. Mortgage remaining of just over £30 000 and would like it gone asap. We currently overpay by £560 a month but would like to add an extra £1000 to this most months if all goes well. this adds up to a very ambitious £18 720 but I think I'll aim for £15 000 for some wriggle room. We're with Heliodor - moved from NRAM so can overpay what we want but the downside is we're still on 4.5% (or there about) interest.
    Hi Porridgecat, welcome to the challenge! You've got #95 :)

    Welcome back! I've added you to the spreadsheet - let me know if you'd be happy with a lower number as well :)
  • Hi Julicorn, thank you so much for running this challenge again!  I would like to join again this year please - I was #52 for 2020's challenge but don't mind being moved to fill a gap.  My 2020 target was £12,000 and I just did it...but I am going to stretch myself again and say £14,000 target for 2021.  Thanks Julicorn!
    01.05.2019 - Re-Mortgage - £142,000 :eek::eek::eek: Total overpaid to date: £15,584.33.

    Also, our combined target is over half a million already! <3
    That's amazing! We might be in a better financial position in January than I thought, so watch this space for a potential target increase too. 😊
