My forfeit, as requested. Just to say to start that I got my credit card bill today and I am not debt free as I thought. I owe MBNA £1.27. I will pay this online as soon as I write this.

Virgin.net doesn't want my cash
I am a committed debt-free wannabe having cut up the cards two years ago. It was a totally liberating experience and I have been operating on a cash-only basis every since. My debts are largely down to a relationship breakdown and the failings of the tax credit and child support systems. That said, there were some…

Bailiffs Powers - Courts and Enforcement Bill
Following on from the BBC whistleblower programme and my other “Bailiffs up to their old tricks” thread from yesterday I think the important thing to take away from this is that if you thing the Bailiffs are running amok now just wait 5-6 years and then see what they are doing!

Has anyone had this problems with Payplan?
At the begining of September I logged on to my Justabank account and it said that my account was in arrears. I rang Payplan up and said that the money had been debited from my account as normal - the same as it has done for the last 6 months (by standing order). The person I spoke to said that she couldn't understand why…
