Well done SuzieWong :T What an achievement and what a feeling!
I am pleased to report I finally have paid last bit of interest to MBNA - called yesterday to confirm all up to date and requested card to be closed. Have today logged on and it says CLOSED. Yippee (almost 6 years I had the card - and most of the time it was maxed!). Just waiting for written confo from them.
So my mid month update total is :
£4,057 / £10,206
My next goal is to have 50% paid by end of June so thats another £1,046 I need to find - eek !0 -

It means I have met my first target, so would like to increase it to £10000 pleaseIt sounds like a huge amount, but when I start working full time in September I don't want to get too used to having the extra money and not increasing what I pay towards my debts.
I would be sooooo well off if I wasn't having to pay off all these debts :mad:. Either that, or I wouldn't be having to go to work full time.
I feel so stupid when I think of how these debts have mounted up over the years. I don't really have anything to show for it.
Woo hoo! Congratulations on being our first to hit target! :j:T:j:T:j:beer:"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
