    Can anyone tell me how to cross out the totals in the signature? Thanks

    Danielle

    Hi Danielle

    You have to highlight the text that you want to cross out and select the button on the toolbar above (when composing your message/signature) with the S that has a line through it.

    Hope that made sense!!

    I have been lurking around this board for a few months, as of yet I've not posted. This challenge is ideal for me, as summer 2012 is my debt free target! :j

    :eek: Total owed: £9,950 :eek:

  • Hi, I have been looking for a challenge to join in with for a while and think this one would be a good one for me. My debts (excluding mortgage) aren't massive but I would still prefer to be rid of them!! I currently owe around £11k - do I need to work out the exact amount before I can join?
  • Hi Dragon,
    I have been reading a lot of DFW posts recently and your Olympic challenge caught the eye. I would love to be involved in the challenge as I share the sentiments of everyone on this thread in being debt-free!

    My total debt as it stands = £19,161.04 !!

    Hi, Dragon,

    I would like to join this challenge too as I'm hoping to be Debt Free by 2012 as well.

    My total debt is currently: £25621.77 (excluding the balance of everyday use CC which gets cleared every month)

    P.S. How do people on the list keep you updated? PM or posting reply to this thread?
    Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, I'm DEBT-FREE at last! (with apologies to Martin Luther King :))
