    May I ask a question, I have a credit card with a balance of £500 on (the only debt I have, the washing machine went bang!), could I pay Barclaycard online via my bank say a £1 per day as a part of the payment per day challenge, I won't miss a £1 per day, but will my bank (FD) or Barclaycard charge me for such low payments per day? I will pay a lump sum at the end of each month as well when I get paid.

    Barclaycard should not be a problem - currently working on my Barclaycard and I've done £1 a day for longer than a week at a time, no issues. I would PAD each day as you might save a smidgeon of interest as its calculated daily and also sign up for online then you'll see the total coming down on their online slider bar thingy.

    When I was clearing Cap1, small amounts each day, when I phoned them they did query so many small payments but I just say, oh I pay what I can afford each day and they were cool with that.

    I say go for it!

  • Lol!! Our local Timmy's and Sains both have the slot ones.... in the week before pay day last month, I spent 2 mins putting in £4s worth of 2ps because thats all the cash I had! It was a bit :o but such is life..... I did get a weird look from the lady overseeing the self scans though! :D

    Sx

    If it had been quiet, I would have finished but there were a few people waiting :o I had actually spent more than £5 so had to put a couple of quid on my card anyway. Maybe next time!!

    Hi all:j

    Just popping in to ask - & I probably already know the answer to this one - Angelic - just been busy doing a 0% BT from DH's cc to my bank a/c. Now it's in there, I'm going to pay off my LL/TSB cc. Does that count as a PAD???????? It's a biggie:D

    Of course it counts :D

  • I was going to write what I've eaten, but I'm not actually dieting yet... I'm thinking about doing Weezls food plan thing for a month to see if it helps me be healthier? I've had beef casserole on the slow cooker for about 3 hours now but it's still not done.... grrrr!
