    Afternoon all,

    Haven't been on the thread and forum as much as I would like lately, things have not been going well at work and I am crazy busy at home at the moment.
    In the last week I've managed to PAD £77 to my overdraft. Fingers crossed it'll stay there, things are going to be very very tight this month so I doubt I'll be PADing anything else. I'll try not to give up hope though!
    Debts at Highest £18600
    Overdraft £550/£900
    Egg Loan currently £6253
    Credit cards - GONE AGAIN as of 26/07/11
    THIS TIME IT'S FOR REAL!
    Aiming for DFD 26/01/2012

    I have tight months like that too, tigermoon. Perhaps try just PADding £1 a day for a while? I do that and it keeps me in the PADding frame of mind but doesn't wreck my balance.

    Just a suggestion :)
    Total Debt Sept 2010 - £24,132.38 / Current - £0.00/ 100% paid

    £10 a day // Jun - £64/£300 / Jul - £133/£310 / Aug - £281/£310

    I have only made a small payment today, closed an old Cash ISA with a tiny sum in it! Every little helps though!

    I just went to make payments to my utilities from my Halifax account but all the payee details have disappeared. A couple of people have mentioned it on the bank acc forum, but not sure why it's happened.

    Will have to try to set it all up again, but too tired for that tonight!
    One step at a time ;)

    I know I am really late to this challenge, but may I join please? I will be PADding into an account every day and then transferring the money to put towards a debt at the end of the month.

    :hello:Hiya PADders inc.
    After a long gap its very comforting to be back with a PAD as I always feel back in control of all those nasty little credit cards/overdrafts

    "You're all doomed my little beauties":rotfl:(evil laugh!!!!)

    This time I'm concentrating on two debts with a balance of £360:eek: - not a great deal but they've got the highest int rate and I just want to get rid of the little blighters (the other horrors are just too much to think about at the mo so I'm working my way through them slowly but surely)
    Pad for today - £4.10 please COMP
    See everyone tomorrow for another thrilling installment !!!
    May you fill up the great clutterbucket of life and may all of your leaks be in cheese sauce:D
    Use it up, wear it out, make it do or do without:cool:
