Thanks for the updates everyone, my loan payment has come out so that's another £324.17 to add to my total.

Here's to a great debtbusting April for us all!

Oooh, I'm wondering if I can get to the £5k mark this month. That would be great!

This month we have had updates from a disappointingly low 58 people, but hopefully everyone will come back!

However, despite that, we have paid off £57,899.02 :j:j:j

Which makes our total to date
£207,048.59/£1,337,672.42 :T:T:T

Well done everyone, that is another fantastic result :beer:

That's still an average of £1k per person, amazing really!!!! :T

I'm having a horrific month financially - wish I hadn't overstretched myself at the start of the month now. Thanks to some thieving g*t stealing my bike :mad: (which I commute on and can't do without) I'm down to £125 with 3 weeks until pay day and one bill left to come out.

This is the point where I'm glad I have no credit cards or overdraft to fall back on, because I have no choice but to make it last. Won't be fun though!

Sorry to hear that but I am glad I am not the only one who doesn't have much money this month. I have £200 to last until pay day. :mad:

I am a little nervous to be honest as have not had any unusual bills go out this month, but seem to be cutting quite close to the cloth.

Makes me worried about the coming months but we will see.

Had some good sales on ebay tonight of old clothes, so if everyone pays up that will be another £35 or so towards the debts. Dh has some more gigs booked in too, so looks like once we're back from the States we'll be able to pick up a notch or two.

Hi All
A suprise £8.93 landed in my bank today from a cashback site. Didn't think I had anything in there so well chuffed! :j very tempted to put it towards this month for going out and stuff but instead I rounded it up to £10 and paid it off my credit card, balance now: £985.59/£5423.06 Will definately break the £1K mark this month when my loan payment is made! :j

Just paid an extra £17.50 off my Barclaycard to bring it down to £680, I wasn't going to concentrate on this one as the Post Office 0% runs out first but we had to use it for our Olympic ticket order so need to try and get it paid off asap after tickets come on or even before if I can. Now £1656.83/£6842.49 and total debt owed is back down under 6k now...it should def stay that way this month as I'm waiting on my SAYE any day and although this will only pay off what I shouldn't have spent on my card last month it will still bring the total total down:)
