    I'm slacking on extra payments as I know I'll be done by the end of the year anyway - I need to find my motivation to do it FASTER!!

    Well what do you really want?
    REALLY REALLY WANT?
    A cash holiday somewhere?
    Aim that if you complete this challenge you have to save x amount so you can go somewhere nice.
    Just a thought.
    It shouldn't all be about paying off things sometimes you need some fun.

  • Hi All
    Pay day for me today too. I have sent an extra £160 over to loan repayments as I don't have to pay council tax this month and am on a payment holiday from BT due to building up credit balance - so what would normally go to these things has gone to loan repayments.

    I wanted to pay a bit more this month to MBNA, but I got paid yesterday and my lovely bosses had docked my pay by £93 for when I had to go and see my mum in hospital while she was having tests for cancer. Haven't these people heard of compassionate leave :mad:. Normal April payments will resume tomorrow, and Aprils' bcard overpayment won't be as much as normal. Nor will Mays', as they are deducting the same amount then. B****** :mad:
    LBM Dec 10. Total unsecured debt £41176 :eek: Nov 12 Debt Free Thanks Mum x RIP x
