    Evening Padders! :j

    After much deliberation today and the very non no spend day that I've had (why do people have to give birth or have birthday's before payday?!) I can only do little pads again until next week...

    My pad for today is £4.00 please Clearing!

    Hope you've all had a fab day! x

    I would like to join this thread to clear our final amount of cc debt. We now owe £949.57 on the Virgin card at 0%.

    Today I sent £7.52made up of a £5 Halifax Reward and £2.52 interest to Virgin, making total o/s £942.05.

    Expecting topcashback and Quidco payouts in the next few days, not sure I can make a payment each day though.

    £200 HFC
    £50 sol's costs
    £50 Egg
    £5 Barclays O/D
    £5 Barclays loan
    £4 Cap 1

    TOTAL PaD £314
    One step at a time ;)

    That seems quite middle of the road so isn't too bad! The best one I have is 6.9% and the 'worst' is 14.9% so your 15.9% seems reasonable compared to some of the apr's we've heard about!!

    Thanks Angelic,

    Just found out that it is only 15.9% if I take up BT but if don't then it is only 7.8%:j:grin:

    Are you sure that's not the other way around?!! I always thought the lower rate they offered was the BT rate...you learn something new everyday!! :)

    I just double checked, it's 15.9% if I opt for the 0% balance transfer for 15 months or 7.8% if I go for platinum simplicity with a low rate :D I have not got any balance to transfer so i guess low rate it is for me :D

    Aww thanx for the lovely welcome angelicmary85 :)
    Well I have been putting away 2p's and 1p's, 5p's, 10p's and 20p's in little empty pasta cartons since Saturday and have just counted and have saved 8 pound 17 pence in just 4 days so not bad :)
    Have to go get my Betterware books ready - can I add earnings from that on here please?
    Jenny :)

  • Evening all, finally caught up with myself again - phew!!

    A PAD or two and a boob for me today :o

    I PADed £425.19 to my Sainsburys card, clearing it totally:j plus £5.77 to smEgg.... then the £84.09 minimum payment went out for the Sains card :o

    A total PAD of £515.05, and a credit on my credit card :rotfl:

    Hoping for a BT deal when its all cleared, as my 0% ends on the Virgin card next month :eek:
