    Me too so ive done some surveys to earn some money. If you search for surveys in the main articles it will tell you what you have to do and its really easy which i like

    Ha me to I think it is sad but good. I am so excited about listing my first lot of items on Ebay because it could mean that I will be able to pay off some more before pay day!

    Without this Forum and this thread I would still more than likely have my head in the sand paying hundreds in interest every month.
    I know there is a very long way to go (i've only paid off 4%) but going on what I have read and how supportive you all are I think we all stand a really good chance of making massive dents into our debts

    :T Big cheers for you all and thanks for being so fab :D

    Totted up this months payments made on all the debt and cleared over £1000 - hurrah! Even better I got some unexpected money from my Mum at Xmas and have made 2 big overpayments to my most horrific credit card so next month the amount paid off should show at over £2500 - meaning in 2 months I will already be 1/3 of the way there

    glad everyone is doing ok
