You can repay lump sums over and above your minimum monthly repayment without any early repayment charge of up to 10% of your capital balance each year. Your capital balance is calculated when you take out your mortgage at each anniversary.  Full details will be found in your Mortgage Illustration (ESIS).

An early repayment charge will be payable if the mortgage is redeemed within the first two years. The early repayment charge will be equivalent to 2% of the capital repaid in year 1 and 1% of the capital repaid in year 2 less the permitted 10% annual overpayment allowance. Overpayments (monthly or lump sum) up to a total of 10% of the outstanding loan per year are allowed without charge. Any amount repaid over the 10% limit will incur an early repayment charge of 2% of the excess amount in year 1 and 1% of the excess amount in year 2.
