This applies to customers who have in present a high amount of money, and they would like to use them to cover the payments in the future (getting in this way month/s without any repayment), as well as not changing the amount of the future instalments.
Example: Loan account with a monthly payment of 100 p.
Instalment date | Interest | Principal | Total | Status |
---|---|---|---|---|
1-Aug | 30 | 70 | 100 | PAID |
1-Sep | 29 | 71 | 100 | PAID |
1-Oct | 28 | 72 | 100 | SCHEDULED |
1-Nov | 27 | 73 | 100 | SCHEDULED |
1-Dec | 26 | 74 | 100 | SCHEDULED |
1-Jan | 25 | 75 | 100 | SCHEDULED |
1-Feb | 24 | 76 | 100 | SCHEDULED |
…. | 100 | SCHEDULED |
The client wishes to pay the future instalments and uses 330 p for that.
Result is that the next 3 instalments will be fully covered (300 p) while the 4th will only be covered partially (30p) and customer will see that he will still be due 70p.
The 5th and future instalments will remain unchanged.
