It\u2019s an interest-only mortgage so the last \u00a340,000 should be paid off by my endowment (it was meant to pay off \u00a365,000 but underperformed so this is their latest prediction, and I am too late to make any claim about that). My bank has told me I can\u2019t take out another deal and will have to go on its standard variable rate for the last 18 months of the mortgage. I am a bit concerned in case the rate goes up and I get stung. It seems very unfair. Not only have I had to pay off an extra \u00a325,000 because of the poor investment vehicle but I now might have to pay more interest.Is there any course of action I can take to improve this situation?
