  • I've just added up my little bird savings bank, I've got £7.09 so far. It's not a lot but it's better than nothing! And I will try as hard as I can for the next two weeks as I pay Tesco on the 15th - want to make it bigger and better than last time :p

    Just 12p for me today. It's all the change I had in my purse:o

    Hi Magni - that makes me feel better you saying that. Every little helps. I managed a £1 today but it was a bit of a struggle. Rather than struggling to make a payment of £1 I may make payments of pence. Doing that will at least make me feel I'm saying on track with the challenge. And even a few pence is better than nothing.:j

    Can you set up online access to any of them? Maybe check their websites. Also I think, for some of them anyway, you just ring and make a payment without having to speak to anyone just like you do with telephone banking. I think someone said that their credit card company did query the fact they were paying every day but can't remember who it was.

    What some people do though is just save a bit everyday and then add it to their minimum payment at the end of the month.

    Right, I slipped off again. Once Ive finished doing a bit of work and worked out what money I have for this month I will make a payment - today!
    Hope all are well.
    AllisonJ - Personally I use internet banking to do it rather than calling up, other put it into pots and pay off in lumps.
