    Hi Please may I join?

    I would like to clear my Marshall Ward account of £500 - It keeps getting shoved to the bottom of the list because it's small but the interest is almost double any other debt that I have.

    Any tips anyone?

    My tip is to keep coming back to the thread, reading peoples comments helps spur me on to make an extra payment no matter how little.
