    Thanks, Yargo. No, I'll start a new thread, it'll be easier for me that way.

    Done it!

    Pay day today, so I've paid off the final £235.94.

    So its now £1079.06 paid, and £0.00 still to go

    There'll probably be some residual interest still to pay, but to all intents and purposes, I've achieved my target :j

    I'm feeling rather pleased with myself :T
    Debt free since December 2015. It can be done

    I recently paid off the remainder of my Next directory with my Barclaycard (to reduce the interest), and have today paid off the Barclaycard (£449.74) taking me to £997.57/£500 paid :j

    I really didn't think I would be able to pay off this whole debt in the 100 days, especially alongside my other debts, so am feeling very pleased with myself. Looking forward to the next challenge (thank you Amara :p) and am deciding which debt to throw all my money at!! The trouble is, the others are all larger, but I will tackle them in achievable 'bites'!!

    Agree with you 100%. I've been checking back constantly to see if the new thread has been started yet. I'm going to target my smallest debt during the challenge to make it easier and give me that boost I need.
  • Hi I paid £11.14 today to bring me up to £500 paid. I haven't managed to completely pay off the debt but I have paid £500 over and above my normal debt and I am delighted with that. Well done everyone xx
