Hi - #48 with an overpayment of £100.36 for January. Random I know but I like round numbers on my account 🤣. Thanks Julicorn x2

I'm going to wait till tomorrow to post the first overpayment as I want it to actually show in the account (I guess I'm security afraid it'll go astray and end up in someone else's mortgage) One step backwards today as when I logged in it was showing the month's interest added so it was higher than before. One step forward though as the interest was £95, the first time its been under £100.

Is it possible to up my target to £1,000 please? Not being able to get out to buy a new car has been good for me financially, as has the whole lockdown actually.
Hope that’s not too much of a faff for you to change.

#61 hi there I can I record 355.03 overpayment for Feb please. This is a squeeze for us this month but takes our mortgage into the 50ks very exciting. Hoping when our fixed rate is up next year we’ll be in the 40ks and can pay off a chunk. Hoping to be MF in 5 years when I’m 47. Just in time for possible university support madness that may come our way.
thanks for updating.5 -
