It's still coming down, even when you only pay a small amount. So long as it all moves in the right direction it's all good!Debt £5600 all 0%0

Sorry you're having trouble finding a permanent job. Are you still waitressing? Sounds like you got huge tips there so you must be good at it.
I hope you find your dream job soon but you're doing so well paying off so much despite all the difficulties you've had to overcome.

i'm fast approaching a year since i started paying off my debts and i have to say i have mixed feelings at the moment, i'm chuffed with how much i have managed to pay off with a little determination and support from you guys but also a little daunted but the fact I know i have another 5 years until my defaults are removed and i have an unblemished credit report again. i think i've become a bit slack with the debt busting, i know i'm not waitressing anymore but i need to re-assess my expenditure. so i'm going back to my weekly action list to keep me on track:
this week i need to:- Call the inland revenue to find out about my tax refund :-)done - they have now decided they are misisng a piece of info
- Cancel my electricity Direct Debit - they want £66 off me a month!:eek:
- Do a timed walk to my new job as when that starts i'll save £80 at least in petrol done - 20 minutes (there and back)
- Decide on a NSD challenge done 15 days this month
- Ring paragon and complain about the charges £40 for 2 phone calls chasing an amount i've paid! done - gotta call them tonight with dates on the letter for calls
- Ring Job centre about giving back the over payment they made me and refused to take back until i've received an official letter
- Cash Cheque recieved from BT
- Chase HR for a start date done 1 week! WOOHOO
- Plan meals for the week
