1 debt in 100 days part 5

I-Will-Get-There

I did some extra work last night so have another £50 to go towards this overdraft. I just can't wait to have one debt paid off. This will be such an achievement for me. I know there are 4 more waiting in the wings but this thread has really helped me keep on track. I think of it as a game - and one I AM GOING TO WIN :T

Once I've paid off my overdraft I then have to take the next step of cutting up the cash card of that account. This will be a huge step for me as I would normally dip in to the overdraft when I'm short of cash. That safety net will be gone but if I don't do it, then I'll end up with a huge overdraft again. I just want to be free from these debt shackles.

Thank you guys for all your support.

So paid £543.07 and have £654.33 to go. Took on more work so expect to get some cash early next week again.

I'm absolutely shaking at the moment. Went to pay the extra cash on my overdraft. I forgot my cash card as I prefer not to have it to hand in case I take out money so had to ask an advisor to get me the number to pay in. Well he asked if I'd like a loan to cover my OD and CC :eek:. I don't know how many times I had to repeat, no thank you I'd prefer to try and clear my debts by overpaying as much as I can.

I've already had a consolidation loan - I certainly don't need another one :mad:

19. Rictus123 £889.91/2856.42

Not really followed this thread, bought tools and equipment for work so didnt have much of a surplus, its paid off and income is up a great deal now.

Aim was originally £2,856.42.

i now owe £2,609.32
So not down much...however i do have more of a surplus coming in that can help clear this is a much shorter time.

Doesnt look good on paper but at least its down and not up! Im headed in the right direction so i will get there.

I know this challenge is nearly finished, but will there be another one starting?

Hello, Dorsetgirl. This challenge is finishing 3th August, we haven't decided when a new one starts yet. It will be soon afterwards, though.
