    Debt-free and Proud!
    Hi all...I have done some debt restructuring. My credit card debt has now been balance transferred onto a new Santander 15 months interest free BT card.

    So my current total after the switcharound is £3302.25

    My plan is now to make minimum payments on the Santander card for the first 14 months, while saving the rest of the allocated amount from my budget in my ISA, then remove it again on my debt free day to pay off the balance. This will be on July 1st 2011!!
    Debts at LBM (May '08) £5760 - Lloyds CC £4260, Lloyds OD £1500;
    Debts as of May 28th 2011:
    Santander CC: £0.00
    Lloyds OD : £0.00

    Hi bloodofareptile - good to see you again! I have you down now at £6,039.63 paid

    And we're both wrong, I think. I keep mucking up my totals because I'm not including my largest student loan in the Olympic challenge as I don't think that's possible.

    I know I included a payment on it once before and asked for it to be taken out, which you might not have seen.

    I've just managed to do it again as well. My real total should be 5851 GBP.

    One day I will get this right. :(
