    Sky is high and the repair plan? Yes it's disgusting, am going to look at that one
    Whats the NU payment? For an Endowment to cover part of the mortgage, the smaller part, will get a figure later
    Gas and Leccy high - can this be changed via quidco? Hopefully, but not sure if it's worth not changing until after the winter :confused:

    Thanks for the speedy reply

    what on average is his income per month

    your mum has income, does any of that go towards these biils or the mortgage/secured debts

    his mortgage and secured debts ....do these add to 902 per month or 1064 per month?

    when you say the rest of his wages ...are these different to those here then?

    He says £2000 a month on average, but keeps money to run his own account. He was aiming to put £400 into this joint account per month but it doesn't ever happen.

    The two mortgage payments are from this account, the loan is currently from his sole account but needs to be addressed.

    Yes, mum has income, and 60% of it goes to two more loans caused by my dad's overspending _pale_

    Update:
    Since I last posted he's admitted his credit cards are nearly at their limits _pale_ _pale_

    Oh help.....

    i think really that one needs to see the complete picture before any sensible advice can really be given i.e. all the income all the spending and all the debts

    Thanks for trying
