Olympic Countdown aka clear those debts by July 2012!

russabbott

Hiya,
I'd like to take part in your challenge!

Its January 2010 and I have £17589.73 of unwanted debts!

I'm aiming to clear it by December 2011, but feel this challenge gives me a group of fella debt busters to help me through so all gone by July 2012 I hope!

Cheers for having me

Jim

£427 for me today:j

Dragon - silly question - would you rather I updated 'as and when' or once each month (just really worried about the amount of updating of the front thread that you must have to keep on top of):beer:

Same question from me really too. I make some kind of payment to a debt most days (sometimes mere pennies). It would be easier for me to do it say, monthly, and I imagine it would be easier for Dragon too? In fact, I think I will do it that way anyway as it just seems easier.
Today's payment is £43 to a credit card.

Morning all,

Thank you to The Dragon for adding me to the list. Number 73!!!

This week I need to get hubby to apply for the Balance Transfer CC's i have found. So long as they are ok and we get them will be able to transfer balances in Feb (just before the interest kicks in on the current cards).

Will post payments once a month if that is ok, but will be checking in for motivation daily!

Good to see you Shoperholicnot and russabbott! (Shoperholicnot could you confirm how much you hope to pay off please )

Thank you Paulgonnabedebtfree and skaps for your payments - you take us to 1.2% paid over all!

Hi, Please, can I join in.
There's no way that I can be debt free by then, but it would make a good dent and help me follow my plan.

Can you put in down for £25,000.

Thanks

Thanks Planning_ahead and PGBDF - the amount paid is creeping upwards!

In answer to your queries - I have no objections at all to as and when payments - in fact I quite like them as they keep the total moving!

Total to pay at start - £1,371,989.65
Total paid to date - £16,877.43
Percentage paid = 1.23%

Hi can you take off £103.57 please really chuffed cause i have managed to pay off a loan 18months early by making some overpayments last year and when i phoned today to find out how much i had left i was told that if i paid today i would get an interest rebate of over £200. Needless to say i jumped at the chance to save more money and clear off a debt.
