    Do you mind if I join you?

    A little late in the year but I really want to clear off my Barclaycard in 2012. With an APR of 29.9 this is the one I would like to tackle first.

    The total amount is £697, and with my monthly payments of £60 I need to find an extra £18 per month to have this cleared off by December.

    I've added the figure to my signature and can't wait to see it coming down.

    Hi all. I am ashamed to say I've been so busy I have let my pay one debt activity slip this last 4 weeks. Slight catch up now - still have some more to pay but will have to sort it out in 10 days time :o

    Monthly payment was made on 15th March (see I said I was behind!) $285.35 gone:D

    Also sold some of my Dear Mum's jewellry - it had been sitting in my bedside drawer since she died in 2007- well after 4 years if I haven't worn it (I do wear some) I thought it might as well go so £51 = $81 paid today (Thanks Mum:A)

    So...

    DVC $757.19/$4091.72

    $3334.53 to go

    Good Morning :)

    Now that the banks are open again it's back to getting that debt gone. I made another little payment this morning to keep my bank account nice and tidy. :)

    Another little payment this morning. It's probably the last one before payday on Friday when I'll make the big monthly one and I'll be able (hopefully) to see a real difference. :T

    Statement has arrived and I now owe £693 on the card I plan to pay off this year. Currently I don't have a lot to go toward it so I may have to wait til pay day to throw money at it. (I hate interest sooo much - it's only gone down £7 since Feb and I cut up the credit card/closed the account ages ago).
    Debt at worst: £33000 (Feb 2011). Present debt: £25610 (Apr 2012)
    Lloyds old (22.4%) = 560 (Dec 2012)

    Made a little payment to the card this morning to keep the bank account looking nice and tidy. Don't think there will be many this week so every little payment helps :)
