Even with all the sliders wound down to £0, Barclays were coming up as £22/month charges?Starting Debt: ~£20,000 01/01/2009. DFD: 20/11/2009 :j

When all the boxes on the left have zero in them and the slider thing is at the far left, i.e. u aren't over your limit etc why are most of the banks showing monthly charges on the right?0

Nifty tool, without the details of the charges hard to compare though. Worked ok for me with my last months charges for NatWest.
not sure how obvious the sliders are meant to be. In firefox they are quite difficult to spot and it was easier to just type numbers in.Debts at LBM - Mortgages £128497 - non mortgage £27497 Debt now £[STRIKE]114150[/STRIKE][STRIKE]109032[/STRIKE] 64300 (mortgage) Credit cards left 0

I found the sliders fine to use in firefox and it scared the pants off me how much people could end up paying.Debt at highest: £8k. Debt Free 31/12/2009. Original MFD May 2036, MF Dec 2018.0

Think this is a great little tool and easy to use ... but I'm not sure about some of the figures given.
On setting all the sliders to the maximum, do NatWest really only charge £70, Barclays £110, Co-op £150 and Halifax £155? The rest are between £1,000 and £3,283.
Looks fine in both Firefox 3.5.3 and IE8.Debt Jan 2008: £45,566. *** June 2013: DEBT FREE! ***
Paid back just under £50,000 due to some interest added.

i've had a play with this and it's all very interesting but i see that Clydesdale Bank has been completely left off the list... it may not be popular in England but it's very popular in Scotland... any chance of it being added to the list?
other than that I like what you're trying to do here a real eye opener but I feel I can't give much more 'real' feedback if I can't use my own bank to back up the data against...0 -
