Anybody ever done it? I would rather pay it off pretty soon instead of having money come out of my account each month! Has anybody paid theres off or part payment?

Paid mine off. What do you want to know?
You can do it via their website, just put your card details in.

Same as that - although about £30 per month if not more if I get a bonus. I just see it as an additional tax on my gross salary.

Wish I was paying £9 a month 
Might be a daft question, but can I reduce my payments if I was to give them a call?

It'll depend on your arrangement, the wage deduction ones have a lower limit.
Basically the interest rate is great so if you're going to borrow money elsewhere you're better keeping the student loan.
Should be the last bit of debt you pay off. If you've no more debt then yeah, lose it. If not, keep it.

Always thought it was cheaper not to pay it off in 1 go as you will never end up paying the whole lot off. Will get written off before you do (depending on wage)
Don't have any though so I don't know!

Only get it written off if you're not earning enough. Otherwise you're liable for it.

I think it's wrong it's written off tbh. You took it, you should pay it back.
