    Thank you so much Skaps for the updates It is good to see the percentage of debt paid rising even if it is only by a small amount at least it's going in the right direction.

    Hi All

    £47.59 off my credit card today

    Leaves £2067.51 to go

    I'm #12

    Just in case anyone is wondering how I'm going to pay off the card by 15th June by only paying minimum payments.....as it is on an interest free BT now, I'm paying minimum payments and putting the rest into a high interest savers account - then on final payday I'll withdraw and pay it all off in a lump :D
    Debts at LBM (May '08) £5760 - Lloyds CC £4260, Lloyds OD £1500;
    Debts as of May 28th 2011:

    Well done everyone (Purpleroses YAY!!) - thank you Skaps for keeping this going, I am sorry I ahven't been here but my health really took a turn for the worse and I am only just clawing myself back (added to a health scare for my father as well it has NOT been a good year), my CC is still nearly at the top BUT I have nearly cleared my overdraft so I am nibbling away. Not sure I will get there in the next 18 months but going to give it my best!

    Hello Dragon :wave:

    Its really lovely to hear from you. I hope you are feeling much better, very soon you will be able to put this horrid year to bed and start afresh with the new one! Not sure I'm going to make the 2012 target either as my overpayments are going to my mortgage now. I may try and sneak the odd payment through if I can. ;)

    Glad you're back. Stay in touch. x

    Hello, so excited to see this thread. I have a vast amount to pay off next year.

    My target is a whopping 46,460. Even if I could pay half of it (23,239), I´d be pleased.

    Thanks,
