Thinking of freezing my mortgage for about 3 months while I'm on maternity leave. What happens - do the monthly repayments increase after or is the length extended?

The length is generally extended, and I think the interest repayments are recalculated. I would ask them to provide the comparative figures of the new/additional cost in order to decide. AFAIA it is a very expensive form of finance.

When you take a moratorium you are not freezing the mortgage, the bank will recalculate the mortgage based on the remaining term so your payments will be a little bit higher when your break is finished.
