    I haven't heard that Kat, I hope it's true though; why should they make it difficult for people to make payments - oh yeah its so they can keep charging more interest!

    I hadn't heard that either. I can't see how they can possibly refuse to take a payment. It's daylight robbery. Kind of

  • I know, it does make it hard but then I suppose it means if we have an emergency once we start saving the money will be there rather than us getting further into debt.

  • It's still a payment off the loan though and another % down...I can guarantee that most (if not all) of us are including scheduled payments in this challenge...I certainly am! :D
