Struggling to make your mortgage payments?

Mortgage support

Worried about missing a mortgage payment?

We know the increasing cost of living and rising interest rates are having an impact on some of our customers.

If you have a residential mortgage with us and you’re up-to-date with your mortgage payments, you could be eligible for cost of living support.

  • Switch to reduced payments no lower than interest only payments for up to 6 months. You'll have the option to revert to full capital and interest repayments at any time.
  • To extend your mortgage term to reduce your monthly payments. You can revert back to your original mortgage term within 6 months of changing the term.
  • Change to a fixed rate product (available only to customers on a standard variable rate).

You can only choose one of the above options, you won't need an affordability check, and it won't affect your credit score.

If you would like to discuss either of these options with a member of our team, please complete our call back form and we’ll get back to you.

Already missed a mortgage payment?

If you have a mortgage with us and have missed a payment, you could be eligible for financial support to help you get back on track:

  • Mortgage payment break - this could give you some breathing space for a temporary period. The total amount of interest you pay over the term of the mortgage will increase.
  • Reduction in mortgage repayments. You will pay higher monthly mortgage re-payments after the 6-month period.
  • Restructure your mortgage to reduce your payments by extending your term. Extending your mortgage term will reduce your monthly repayments but increase the amount of interest you pay overall.
  • Change to a fixed rate product, which could reduce your monthly payments (available only to customers on a standard variable rate).

Our team are here to help you, and the options provided above are not an exhaustive list. So, if none of the above feel quite right, you may still be eligible for other mortgage payment support. Get in touch with our team to find out more.

What if my mortgage interest rate changes?
