In respect of those post draw down fees and charges that arise where customers request Springboard Mortgages to provide a service, customers must elect when requesting that service to pay the fee up front or have it added to the loan account. Fees added to a loan account will attract interest at the prevailing rate over the full term of the loan.

The foregoing fees and charges are not the only fees that may be applied to the loan. Other fees covered under Clause 13 of the Mortgage Conditions 2008 include the following:

  1. A "call-out fee" will be charged if Springboard arranges a visit by a debt counsellor to a Mortgagor who is in arrears
  2. A "tracing fee" will be charged where Springboard is unable to locate the Borrower and instructs a third party to ascertain the whereabouts of the Borrower
  3. A "processing lapsed insurance policy fee" will be charged and applied to the Loan Account where Springboard is advised that the Borrower's buildings insurance policy has lapsed.

There may be other third-party fees and charges that will be passed on to the Borrower. In addition there may be other fees, costs, charges, expenses and amounts payable by the Borrower under the Mortgage Conditions and the General Mortgage Loan Approval Conditions (collectively the "Other Costs").

Fees and charges may be increased in accordance with the Borrower’s loan documentation.
