  • Nothing exciting off Mr Postman again today other than some free PAYG sim cards for DS :) there'll be no more running up of bills for him I'm aftraid. I need to find £198 to pay for last months bill and have currently got some towards it but need about another £100. Am hoping the Pet Insurance refund is going to come through so that I can pay it off! Had plans to pay that off the debt but unfortunately the phone bill wins :(

  • Another week over and am I glad I've got 2 days off. A few nice things in the mail today - the pet insurance telling me they are going to pay the money into my account (just didn't say when) and another letter from GE Money saying they will have a response to my complaint by the 3rd June.

    Just been to do the weekly shop and money is ticking over nicely, nothing extra to pay off the next account yet as I need to get some money together for a bill but I'm working on it.....

  • Everything appears to be quiet on the money front this week, no unexpected windfalls or nasty letters. Saying that postie not been yet so theres always a chance that something nice or nasty will arrive.

    Haven't sold anything on e-bay this week but sold a few odds and ends on Amazon. Only about £12's worth but every penny counts in the debt busting world.

    Off to catch up with some ironing so will update later frollowing the visit from postie

  • Well what an absolutely boring life I'm leading at the moment. No nicies off the postman and no spare money to pay off debt. This has got to be the worse month ever for me and my repayment plan.

    Still not received anything from the Pet Insurance but they have sent me a letter saying they are going to reimburse me and no windfalls or lottery wins. Not even sold anything on e-bay :(

    Hi

    I've had no spare money to make extra payments either at the moment, not even the odd penny! Very frustrating.

    Hope your pet insurance comes through soon, you seem to have been waiting ages for it now x
