Explanation:
If my memory serves me right, under the Land Property Act 1925 (?) then a mortgage is a charge on property.

Just checked, it is the Law of Property Act, 1925 (LPA, 1925)...

A "charge" is a "legal or equitable interest inland, securing the payment of money. It gives the creditor in whose favour the charge is created (the 'chargee') the right to payment from the income or proceeds of sale of the mand charged in priority to claims against the debtor by unsecured creditors" (Oxford Dic of Law).
(Useful in the event of bankruptcy as a chargee has high priority in the rnaking of creditors).

The 'chargor' is the other side to the story, the one who has to pay up etc...

As to your term "account charge", when you consider that udner the provisons of the LPA 1925, the only valid legal charges are (selon Oxford Dic - again)

"1 - a rent charge payabale immediately and for a fixed period, or in perpetuity ;
2 - a charge by way of leagl mortgage" and
3 - other charges arising under statute..."

je ne vois pas comment intégrer votre terme "account charge" dans l'extrait donné.

Pourriez-vous donner plus d'info?

Explanation:
Eh bien, s'il ne s'agit de rien d'autre que les frais bancaires - donc une fausse piste dans le mot "charge", quelle piège ! - j'opterais pour les "frais de tenue de compte" (cf. LGDT)

Bonne journée,

Nikki
