Positive Mental Attitude Does Work!

Options
Hi Folks,

Have had amazing support from everyone the last few weeks so would like to say :T !

You might remember slightly I was having trouble cancelling the PPI on the loan I had with Northern Rock, was getting all sorts of harassing phonecalls etc and was generally very stressed. Well sent the letter from this website and got a letter back offering to put through my loan again without the payment protection, which means I am saving £55 pounds a month!

Also applied for a job a few months ago with the police and I have been asked in tomorrow to go through the formalities but I have basically got the job! Higher salary too which means paying off debt quicker!

Thought I would share some positive news, this time last week I honestly did not know what to do, I was crying all the time but I believed things could only get better and they have, so if anyone else is feeling the same way, things can turn round for the better!

  • good on you - great news :)

    A positive attitude is fundamental in making real progress.

    Like you, a short time ago my head was in bits. didnt know what i was going to do, how much I owed, what direction my life was goin in etc etc

    Now i feel great. I know exactly where im going, how im going to get there and what im going to do when i reach my goals.

    sites like this really make a differance, as do the kind and supportive people that use them.

    lets all have a huge big group hug hehe :)
