Hi!
I just wanted to share how chuffed I am that since finding this site in Feb and implementing some of the tips straightaway, I have been reviewing my current account and have had no charges from bank since the end of Feb!
There's still a long way to go, we have an outstanding loan to work on, two overdrafts and more work to do on our budget, plus a period of reduced pay maternity leave in the second half of this year. But with what I have worked on so far and the plans I have, I am feeling more and more optimistic about things. Plus it's great to know I can pop in here anytime to ask the most ridiculous questions (I'm a worrier, what can I say?
) and someone will help.
So thankyou all!:T :T

Well done, have you thought about claiming back your bank charges as they will likely make a nice hole in your debt0 -
