Important information
If all or part of your mortgage is an interest only mortgage, this means your monthly payments only cover the interest that is charged on your mortgage. The costs of any savings plan or other investment you may have arranged, to build up a lump sum to repay the amount you borrowed at the end of the mortgage term is not included. For all types of repayment plan, we recommend that you regularly obtain confirmation, together with financial advice, from your repayment plan provider(s) to ensure that the projected maturity value will be sufficient to repay your borrowing at the end of the term.
You can update us with your repayment plans by completing our interest only assessment form. If it indicates a potential shortfall, you have a number of choices to consider depending on your individual circumstances. To understand more about the options that may be available to you, call our Mortgage team on 0345 241 1724 (we are open Monday to Friday 8.30am to 6.00pm; Saturday 8.30am to 12.30pm) or visit our Interest only mortgages page.
It is your responsibility to ensure you maintain adequate life cover throughout the term of the mortgage and, where interest only payments are being made, that you have sufficient investment funds available at the end of the mortgage term to repay the remainder of the mortgage balance.
