With reference to Gas and Electric; make sure you are on the best tarrif you can get and pay monthly by direct debit; this way you won't end up with a big quarterly bill and you also get a discount for paying monthly by direct debit and also if you have Gas and Electric with same companyMFW 2025 #50: £1989.73/£600007/03/25: Mortgage: £67,000.00

Do post up an SOA though when you get a chance and the good peeps on here will help you save money.
Putting your debt in writing does make it seem scary...that's what triggered me into sorting it out...seeing the actual figure. Adding it all up and coming up with a scary number...27k in my case. Mega yikes!
Good luck.Debt 30k in 2008.:eek::o Cleared all my debt in 2013 and loving being debt free
Mortgage free since 2014
