Emily Hallett started a fantastic thread called 'a payment a day' which you can find here:

Thread 1

:T The thread was a huge success and was continued in 'A Payment a Day Part 2'. That thread can be found here:

Thread 2

:T The thread is extremely supportive and friendly, with lots of madness and smileys to boot! It is ever increasing, which is why part 3 has now been started.

The principle of the idea is that you pay any extra money you have against a debt to clear it a little bit quicker. Not everyone makes a daily payment, but instead they save money to make a lump sum at the end of the month. You can do it anyway you want to, but join the thread and let us know how you are getting on.

Some PaD-ers have cleared their debts and are now focusing on saving following the same principal, so they still post on the thread.

Anyone is welcome to join in at anytime.

Best wishes to everyone :beer:

To show how well we all do, the collective amount paid to each debt, per month, will be logged here. Look how amazing the totals are sHa_clap5.gif

January £31,633.52
February £27,954.19
March £38,976.80
April £34,235.12
May £35,660.62
One step at a time ;)

    Hiya everyone, Thanks for all those well dones :o was a bit embarrassing lol! I'll pass on the speech LondonAndy but will compliment you on your excellent choice of avatar!
    FF, glad to hear you've got a nice big bonus, spend it wisely (i.e on chocolate, cakes, and glasses :D ) and enjoy your trip! I'm sure you deserve it!
    Well done to everyone else on their PAD's - feel ignorant now as I can't remember anything else that I read on the last thread sorry :-(

    Can't get onto internet banking for some reason so have chucked a £1 in the Take That Concert Fund instead.

    Bye all

    Another new thread!! Must be all the talking on the sunday night soiree!!

    Twinkles - you are exactly right, when we originally applied for housing benefit we gave them all the forms, documents etc they asked for, it took them nearly three months to come to a decision!! Now they have written to us giving us three weeks to return the overpaid money!!! In their dreams
