Thanks for all advice

Hi All,

I posted a couple of days ago about struggling in debt. After taking in all your advice and pay day today I have paid off 2 of 4 credit cards ( had to increase my overdraft slightly but the APR on that is a lot less than CC).

This is such a great place to come for support and advice and am so thankful that I am now tackling my debt head on and clearing my feet.

My debt excluding my car and and a very account is only 2.5k plus my 2k overdraft which will be cleared in 4-8 weeks when I get a cheque through but even at that the debt will be less than the 4.5k because I will keep paying towards my debt when I get paid.

Thanks All:T
Debt of £15,000 plus £9000 for a car :(
