A Payment a Day Part 3

Flower08

Thank you danko!! Have just treated myself to s twix! I do feel loads better actually, havent really felt like i was getting anywhere with it, but today has been very productive - so feeling really good about it. If i keep this up all week i will hopefully have a first draft done by the weekend, then i will have two weeks to go through it and edit any bits that need doing.

Hey guys, I owe over 10K in student fees, I do agency work, but jobs are few and far between. I pay £150 a month - it's hard to pay more when you haven't even got it!

this is tough, I could really do with some advice -

Hi Marcus! You've come to the right place for any debt busting advice! This lot on here are fab for support and questions so just feel free to pop by and join the madhouse! :rotfl:

Personally though, I wouldn't worry too much about your student fees! They're automatically deducted through the taxman if you're earning £16k and above. I have heard that you can take a student loan break - may be worth sussing out. I don't worry about it so much as they'll wipe off the debt when I reach 50 :rotfl: I'm sure someone will read your post and offer loads of useful advice for you though - good luck!

OoO fab! Go you! You'll be able to offer me loads of advice when I head back to 'full time education' as I'm well out of practice!! You pro you How many crazy amounts of words to you have to write?

Hello :hello: and WELCOME !!

There's an "up your income" thread on here somewhere which might give you a few ideas to get a bit of extra cash on top of the agency work to throw at the student loan.

Just need someone clever to come along after me to post a link up...as I don't know how to do it

To get extra on top of my wages I have sold some stuff on e-bay and music magpie and also signed up for mystery shopping. Now, they invite me to do stuff quite often as (with respect to the lovely ladies on here) I don't think there are that many men signed up to mystery shop !! and they'll be after a range of opinions. Also, you should get a few extra mystery shop jobs being in London. If interested, Google GFK mystery shop.

Hi Marcus :hello: If you have a look here, flying_fresian has done a fab introductory page for her birthday club challenge. There's links to lots of useful threads and tools for when you're getting started.

Good luck

A better than expected £4.46.

Can I ask - at the moment the cash is going in a jar and I am paying it into the post office when the sum has reached a credible amount (paid £80.30 in today against my M & S bill). Do some of you do internet payments daily for such small amounts?

Hello all!My pad today is 50p.Hope you feel better soon Danko,that is rather shocking considering your a known asthmatic!My hubby and me both have mild asthma (which always strikes when we get colds etc)and my toddler had an attack last week which was scary.I'm not pushy myself,but I would consider complaining about the person (receptionist?).Presume that they don't suffer from asthma themselves?! Take care of yourself luvie x
