HOWEVER...I have decided I am not going to bother, I think it's a temptation waiting to happen, so am going to ring and cancel it when it comes and am going to try and add to my savings more instead. I really want as little debt/credit as possible and can't wait until Natwest OD and DFS (stupid sofas) are paid off in full! Am going to lower my Littlewoods available credit by £50 whenever I can and am going to have to really try harder to get my mum paid back too...!
Have a nice evening all! x
Well done. I wish I'd had that sort of willpower. I probably wouldn't be in a dmp if I had. I had my dmp review today and I'm going to increase my payments - although the review indicated that I should have reduced them. I shall be keeping up my payment a day but from November it'll probably be a lot less than I'm saving just now. At least my debt will be reducing quicker.:jProud To Be Dealing With My Debts - DFW Nerd 323
