Early repayment charges
These are the charges that will apply to your mortgage if you want to overpay or repay early.
Can I make overpayments?
With these mortgages you’re able to make unlimited overpayments without incurring any early repayment charges. Any extra monthly payments or lump sum payments you wish to make will be classed as overpayments and can be paid by standing order, cash, cheque or transfer. Debit card payments can also be made over the phone or in branch. When you make an overpayment your account is credited for the sum received, and your balance adjusted. Any overpayment you make will be deducted from your balance on the same day and your interest adjusted – allowing you to benefit immediately.
By making extra payments to reduce your balance, the daily interest charged to the loan will also reduce, which will mean that you can repay the loan more quickly.
What if I want to repay early?

What if I want to switch my Buy to Let mortgage to another property?
