    £100 to Lloydstsb today. I have applied to have DS1s fees put onto Lloydstsb 0% interest card. I now about the same as I did when I started on here as a result of his £3150 fees for the year.
    He has heard that he wll get funding in Septmeber so we no longer have to pay for him. At 23 we really shouldn't have to be paying out for him but he has been at uni for 5 years now. We have funded 2 years by getting ourselves into more debt.

    Grrr. we love them but can't afford them any more.


    Another£110 paid off tesco credit card today.
    business mortgage £0))''(+ Barclay's business kitchen loan £0=Total paid off was £96105 PPI claimed and received £13527

    Hi

    I'm paying off £939 from my debt this month taking my total since December to £10190. My total debt is now sub £10k - it's a great feeling.

    My income has changed so I don't think I'll be anywhere near the £20K goal but I am getting there.

    Just done my August sums:

    Paying off: £988
    New debt total: £8993
    Total paid since December: £11178

    Well done everyone.

    Bit of a rubbishy effort from me - £110 off the Amex. Just under £1500 to go now....

    Final payment gone of £104 to work loan

    I have one more payment up my sleeve for the month, so will wait until I've made that before reporting total for the month!

    in spite of my title am very grateful to even be even having a pay day so just wanted to add my lot and say that's another £650 to be added to the challenge pot. just recieved my statement from vanquis and the total is now £125 so just one more payment and I will be free of that card just three more to go.

    congrats to everyone sometimes it can feel a little rough but I truly believe we are working towards our financial freedom which is a wonderful goal.
