    I check it every day, first thing I do when I log on each day. It's more to do with fraud than anything else. If there are any transactions going out of my account that shouldn't be, I want to know about them as soon as possible to sort it out!

    I check every weekday. Have a direct debits account and an account for everyday use. Spreadsheet gets updated at the same time.

    The obsession will continue until the debt is paid off ... then I hope to relax a bit!!
