Hello from me too!:wave:

A terrific bunch on here (obviously we do get trolls occasionally unfortunately) and you'll get loads of advice & support.

After all, wherever you are in your journey, most of us will have been/are there too!:)

It is quite quiet just now as a lot of people are on hols so it may take a bit longer than normal for a reply - but don't give up!

I'm guessing its problems with debts or making your money match your month that are the issue?

If so the first piece of advice people usually are given is to work on a statement of affairs to get a full picture of their finances - http://www.makesenseofcards.com/soacalc.html
The other handy thing is to start a spending diary straight away where you write down everything you spend even the little spends so you can track back where your money is going.

But if its other money and debt issues then people should be able to offer advice on those as well.

Yes it is money trouble I'm afraid

I've seen a few posts on here over the past couple of days about spending diaries so that's def something I'm going to do

I've done alright today, only spent £3.60 ish on postage for a couple of things I sold on eBay for about £8 )
