The automatic payment is a requirement to be qualified for the interest rate reduction benefit. Auto-payment is set up through the loan servicer. If the auto-payment is cancelled by the borrower, the rate reduction benefit is lost but may be reinstated. If the auto-payment feature is revoked, the rate reduction benefit is lost and cannot be reinstated even if automatic payments are re-established on the loan.
