hey, this may seem really obvious but i received my quarterly bill for gas and elec which was £450, then looking at it more closely realised this was on estamated readings, so i rang them today gave them my actual readings and my bill went down to £76 something! apparently on my last bill i paid i paid estimated readings,so i paid well over what i should have! so just wanted to make more people aware of this :)

    CC limits £26000


    Long term CC debt £0

    Total low rate loan debt £3000

    Almost debt free feeling, priceless.

    Ex money nightmare, learnt from my mistakes and never going back there again, in control of my finances for the first time in my adult life and it feels amazing.
