Paid tax cheque off Virgin last night but only £100 came off balance as the interest went on. In January the Interest was £140 now its £44 and next month it will be £0, I have until about 16th to put all the payments through so should be able to do it.
Virgin Balance 27.06.10 £1240
30th June Pay - 950
Amazon - 33
£2 Coins -10
Quidco - 70
Cash left in bank - I have a refund due of £209 so will have enough to transfer some to Virgin
Woowoo Im with you then its 2 large cc from Lloyds not so nice as they dont use fast pay I like that when I pay Virgin in the morning its on my account in the evening
Note to self -Must sort out online banking
I bought a car yesterday as well I went for the cheaper one as it seemed more reliable and they are throwing in service, mot and tax DH bonus money will have to pay for it so picking it up Thursday :T
Looking at the figures dont think I will get the balance below £40K
this month unless I move my butt and make some extra cash I need about £350 and then Im into the £30's

I know how you feel. When my last CC is gone, I then have an £18k lump to pay so need to break down the challenges to make it seem less daunting of a task.
Good luck

Just back in after a lovely Indian meal, DH bought me a new laptop for my birthday im absolutley blown away. Firstly because I have never owned a new laptop always cast offs and secondly because I thought the bonus was gone. Then he took me shopping for a few bits for the holiday but just kept thinking this should go off the debt :cool:
I need to make some cakes for work tomorrow as no money in my purse to buy them unitl wednesday.
Time to tighten my belt and get back to debt busting, next debt to clear is a LLoyds one £6590 hoping to transfer £5000 to 0% Virgin card for a bit of breathing space clear the remainder by September and then hopefully I will roll all cards onto 0% if I can find any. My spreadsheets will work sooooooo much better if i dont get any interest
Sorted online banking this will make my life so much easier as now I dont need to make a 15 mile round journey to the bank or use telephone banking :TMARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035

Payment to Virgin £45 just to get it a bit lower now payday is 2 days away taking my chances and spending whats left in the account. Off to Mr T to get some Green coffee, if you like coffee but want to be a bit healthy I can recommend it although it is very mild and takes a bit of getting used to. Also hoping it might help a little with the weight loss holiday is looming and weight is going up and down.
Have a great day all, Im off for another day of people trying to get me to stay it's so hard I like the people but hate the job

Letter of acceptance sent and I am going to have next week off for ME
Lots of exercise cleaning and generally getting everything ready for a week away. MARCH 2016 DEBT £25750/ £25035

So another birthday hasn't slowed you down any then!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You must as high as a kite right now, new car, new job, a week off coming up and then off on your holliers!
And no-one deserves it more, you worked hard for that. (Being a local job and better money, you will also save on fuel, so even better new job and more money)LBM Feb 2010 £62,700 Total Debt Jan 11 [STRIKE]£49,403.84[/STRIKE] £47,530.32.
