  • Well done Lambda and Percy1983!!! very, very brave indeed!

    I am too scared to be as brave as you. This is because my overdraft is free, due to the fact I am a student in my 3rd year on placement. Hence, next year in July I will be graduating and assume my free overdraft will become not so free.

    Better pay it off asap!;)
    Interest Free student overdraft balance = -£1,100
    On the pay day it is +£39, by the time I get paid again the balance is in minus 1000 (vicious circle)Flexible ISA = £2151:)
    Goal: to clear off my free (for now) overdraft and have £2,600 in my ISA by mid September 2011.
  • Gratz on getting the overdrafts shifted. Even though it wasn't my most expensive debt it was the one I went after first because when that had gone it made it so much easier for me to plan and budget.
    Whatever

    Debt-free and Proud!
    I totally get that - clearing my overdraft was my first goal before anything. Being in debit before and after payday every month is just so depressing. I haven't cleared it completely, but at least I can now begin to see the end of it!

    Thanks everyone for your kind comments! I hope my next post will be that my overdraft has been cleared completely! :D
