Don't be offended if every day isn't Valentine's Day between you and your lender. You're in good company. According to an interesting piece in the Daily Mail, some lenders are paying borrowers as much as £25,000 to get rid of them.

The offer is being made by some of Britain's biggest mortgage firms who are willing to take a hit of as much as £25,000 to get the loans off their balance sheets to see them through the credit crunch.

Ah yes... paid to be somebody else's customer... the sign of a healthy mortgage sector. You're most likely to be made the offer if you're in negative equity (obviously); in which case... jump at it.
