Hi Everyone,
I haven't updated for a while but better late than never. My total paid is now £8057.27 which is 45.5%
Not long to go now. We have changed our finances to pay our mortgage off before this debt so only minimum payments for me which means I won't meet the challenge, however, over 8 grand paid since the start of this challenge isn't bad.
Well done everyone else on all the overpayments and thank you as always Dragon. :T0 -

i havent been on this site much since i joined the challenge, but i have been paying of those debts. So far i have paid £4,532 off the debt (51.4%). i don't think i will be able to get rid of the rest before july but i am determined to reduced it as much as possible.
Olympic contender no 73.Debts @ 20-04-14 = £10,9870 -
