Loan overpayment and repayment holiday calculator
Our calculator shows how making extra payments, or taking a repayment holiday, could change the end date of your loan and the amount of interest paid.
Lets get started
You’ll need your loan balance, regular monthly payment amount and the APR of your loan ready for the next sections. Please call us to confirm any of these you’re not sure about. Alternatively, you can find your monthly repayment amount on the bank statement where the loan Direct Debits are paid from. You can also find the APR on your loan agreement paperwork.
Take a repayment holiday
- A repayment holiday gives you a 1-month break from your loan repayments.
- You can apply for up to two repayment holidays of 1 month in a rolling 12-month period, subject to approval.
- Extra interest will be charged if you take a repayment holiday. So, you’ll pay more interest overall and your original term will increase.
- We’ll tell about the extra interest before we set up your repayment holiday. Our calculator can show you before you apply.
- You need to inform us at least five working days before your next loan repayment is due for this to be applied to your next payment.
You can request a payment holiday at any time, providing you:
- Have made at least one repayment and have a Direct Debit in place.
- Are up to date with your loan repayments.
- Have 30 days or more remaining on your loan term.
