    Yargo you could always list another debt to clear/ pay a chunk off during this challenge if you want something to focus on for the next month rather than waiting for the next challenge
    Goals for February

    £21.55 paid, but £16.01 interest added.

    So its now £538.04 paid, and £532.78 still to go.

    Going to be a struggle to hit my target, but I'm halfway there
    Debt free since December 2015. It can be done

    A little £18.83 payment made for me today- taking me to £457.83/£500 paid. Nearly there, and am confident that I will reach the target by the end of the 100 days :p

  • paid £10.00 so £890. owing. Money has been pretty tight lately and I don't think I will be able to pay off the balance before the end of the challenge but I will keep chipping away as much as I can. I would not have paid off this much if I had not been doing this challenge so it has really helped, so thanks everyone.
    The credit card is finally cleared
    Just got loan to pay off now
    balance £2221.

    Updated. Is hard. Very hard. Today I supossed to pay my loan. Has been returned, not enough money on my account. I'll have money within a week, I'll pay, but I'm very upset about my credit score. It will be clasified as late payment. I had one last month on my credit card. I've worked hard to be up to date all the time, but weather affected my business and charges have taken theirs toll on me. Keep going. Not choice really :(
