Day 3, Part 2
Took some old things past a shop in town and sold them on. Managed to get £80 for crap that I found in my cupboards (DVDs, old DVD player (was surprised it even turned on) and an old laptop).
That is MORE than enough to get me through today and tomorrow, and then PAY DAY.
First month I haven't taken a new payday loan for a long time, and hopefully my DMP paperwork will turn up today.0 -
Day 5
I made it through to pay day! That's my first full month without taking a new payday loan. Received all my initial paperwork from the CCCS last night. Will be sending out the notification of DMP with an offer of token payments (via giro slip, they aren't getting my new account details).
Looks like I could be on my feet now!0
