    Another £15 off the CC today - at least the interest is creeping down on this! Another couple of good months and the interest should be in the £40s not the £50s!

    I have some good news (although i didnt include this in my debt) abb*y have just refunded £473 bank charges (they realised we were in financial difficulty) and we only sent off the letter a week or two ago and have cancelled any charges that were to be applied to our account (£245). our joint account is now £50 in credit :j:j:j and its going to stay that way!!! i really hope we can keep on top of this now, i dont want to be in the never ending debt and charges left right and centre again.

    Now to tackle the debt with as much overtime as poss/ looking for another job. i still have cc debts coming out of my ears and had a little slip up yesterday (idiot)!! but need to start kicking some cc a$$. and also have car insurance, tax and xmas coming up oh and have to pay a £2380 dentist bill in a few months, great! :o dont know how i am going to do it but i have to somehow!?!

    A payment to Amazon accidently went on my CC :mad:, but I have transferred the money over along with another couple of quid so that coupled with a mini payment made earlier means another £5 nibbled off the debt! :D

    £2.16 off of a cc today, its a small amount because i keep my cc payments the same so when my dd comes out i top it up with what it used to take when it was at its highest ;) getting rid of it slowly but surely.
