Well at last I decided to pay off my HSBC Visa that I've had for a while but I've been making minimum payment not realising that it would take years to pay off with the intrest.
So I paid of £256 today and thats one less debt to worry about
It may not seem like a lot of money to some people but when your only working part-time it really made me feel happier having one less bill coming through the letter box.

That's super stuff! I've gone from 4 horrid cc to 1 nicer one - with plans to have it all paid off before the 0% runs out!!! So I look forward to having that feeling!! I managed to clear my mint and have it a "fall back safety" card, but I just don't want to use it again.. EVER!!! As said.. CHOP IT UP!Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no. 092

Yes I chopped it into as many pieces as possible just the Halifax card to pay off then I have my loans to deal with. Still the Halifax one is intrest free until Oct this year.
Thanks for all the support

Congratulations!
Did you write or ring and ask them to close it and write to you to tell you they have? Only because otherwise they're sneaky and leave it open... I had to ask Sky Card three times before they remembered to do it...0 -
