I belatedly phoned Barclays this morning to enquire as to wtf my variable rate tracker mortgage payments have been seemingly totally unaffected by all the huge base rate cuts. It turns out they have been keeping my monthly payments about the same by automatically increasing the capital I pay off each month. Who the flip can keep track of whether they are honest in this jiggery pokery is a mystery to me though.

You should receive a mortgage account statement every 12 months which will show all of your payments plus o/s balance in detail.Comment
