I was thinking of doing this as I’ve got some savings but I’m now rethinking it.
i might just pay it from earnings instead.
the only reason i was going to make a lump sum was because it looked like you pay less if you pay a lump sum.
can any one explain the reason for that

Without knowing what you are looking at to make you think that, no - but this thread might give you the answer, since I suspect the reasoning is similar: https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/6598144/tax-relief-at-source-worse-off#latest

I've asked for your post to be split out to start a new thread, which is usually more helpful to posters than resurrecting an elderly one!
