I seem to just wait for my salary, it supposed to come on the last working day of the month which is not till next Tues I'm afraid:(. Really want to make that overpayment now...

At last, payday! £47 off loan, another £150 off one debt and £450 off another. Had a good work month last month so instead of dresses and toiletries I'm paying off my debts quicker. So motivating to see everyone doing so well! I've been using the "do I need it?" rule of thumb, making my own lunches and inviting people over rather than going out and it has really made a difference. I would love to be debt free by next year. Will have to wait and see. Enjoy June!!

Had a decent bonus this month so was able to pay off £200 on the cc and if I'm really careful with my money for the next couple of months, I think I can pay off the balance by the end of August. #debtfreewannabe!

But for now: 132. andy_hunk - £637.50/£1,025.87

im really fed up. i got paid and paid all my bills including £350. off debt.

i now have no money for the month. i mean no money at all.

so i probably shouldnt have made a payment at all but i want this debt gone badly.

i am no going to have to use my credit card (which i pay in full every month - so not a debt technically) to buy food and anything else we want this month.

why is it sooo difficult.

sorry to moan xx

It is hard affordmylife, hope things get easier next month for you. There can be a fine balance between paying off the debt and living, and it can be hard to make it all work sometimes.

Thanks for the updates everyone.

I've managed to pay £120 today, there will be more in the next few days. I'm going to struggle this month though, so need to try and sort out some extra cash somehow.

As usual I'll count any posts up to midnight as May payments, and any after midnight as June payments. I'll pop the total up tomorrow then.

Hopefully we can have a better month in June, May seems to have been a struggle for lots of us!

Keep going everyone!
