If you need to repay your mortgage to move home during the initial mortgage product period, providing you don't change lender, you will usually be able to continue with this mortgage for the remainder of the initial product period. In addition, if this is during an early repayment charge period, providing you borrow the same or greater amount from the lender and continue with this mortgage for the remainder of the initial product period, you won't normally have to pay the early repayment charge. If the loan is for a smaller amount, you may have to repay part of the charge.

In certain circumstances, and if your mortgage is up to date, for a short period you can pay less than your normal full mortgage monthly payment, or even suspend your payments for a while (a payment holiday). You would need to discuss this with us first.

Free Legals available in England, Scotland and Wales through Cheltenham & Gloucester's own conveyancer on standard remortgages over £50k. This offer does not apply to complex cases, including but not limited to, Transfer Of Equity, raising funds for the purchase of a property or guarantor cases, where your client will need to instruct their own solicitor. Please ask for details of any further exclusions. A £400 contribution towards legal fees is available for standard remortgages over £50k in Northern Ireland, this option is also available to customers in Scotland. Conditions apply, in all cases refer to Cheltenham & Gloucester for details.
During the tracker period, you may wish to switch to any fixed rate (subject to eligibility), available at the time of the switch, without paying an early repayment charge. A fee for the fixed rate chosen may be payable.
You can repay up to 10% of the loan's balance per year during the early repayment charge period (using the balance as at 1 January of the year in question) and the charge will be waived. This waiver applies per individual loan. So if your total mortgage is made up of more than one loan, each is treated separately and you can make additional payments of no more than 10% on any individual loan which carries an early repayment charge without the charge applying. Where you make overpayments of 10% or less but then repay the balance in full within six months, the early repayment charge will become payable in full, including the portion which was waived previously.
You can make overpayments as occasional lump sums or as regular overpayments each month. Any overpayment will reduce your mortgage balance, and therefore reduce the amount of interest charged, straightaway.
You may underpay (pay less than the required monthly amount) provided you have previously overpaid and the underpayment is no more than your previous overpayment(s) less any underpayments (including payment holidays) already made.
