I suspect they have some hefty refinancing fees.
I was already adding a few extra dollars to each payment so I may just increase it and that will have the same effect as a lower APR in terms of paying less interest... and paying it off sooner.

I’m in similar situation
I have a lower balance at 4.99 thru BofA.
Good SAMs is quoting me a savings of 60 basis points, but the decrease in payment is negligible.
So, I agree with you and others...throw extra towards the principle each month.
By the way...closing on a home Re-fi at 2.99% this week. I hit the market just right.
And, in other news...still waiting on the stimulus/aid deposit.
