    Paying off Virgin Card today!!! As even though its 0% its only until March and I have heard Virgin really sting you with interest 20%+ once you have finished your 0% so I am going to get rid of it and cancel it today!!!

    then prob do Barclaycard later in month once car has sold. That should also clear overdraft as well. fingers crossed!!
