£203.80 to cap one. The 0% runs out at the end of May so that's the one I'm tackling now; Virgin's got til december. I've already got another offer from VIrgin to BT to it but they charge a horrendous 5% fee so I'm trying to get cap one as low as possible before I do it. Excitingly though that'd mean I have only one credit card to pay off! Unimaginable a few years ago.0

I have sadly had a recent bereavement and I'm going to use my inheritance to pay towards my mortgage as I think my Gran would approve (never had any debt in her life!). Can my new target be updated to £57,000? Thanks
Sorry to hear about your Gran, I'm sure she would approve as it's giving you security in your home.another payment of £7.53 for me so that's £127.32/£1000....
actually, can I change my total? I am going to attempt to pay off all my debt this year instead of being all cautious and going half heartedly at it, so rounding up that's £2117 in total
so my new target is £127.32/£2117! Come June and I'll start to seriously overpay whooohoo!
No problem, I'll update it.seasideDreamer wrote: »Sorry to hear about your loss Shazbot:(
No update from me, in fact my cards have gone the other way, only not spending by me! Haven't checked the total yet as its a bit scarey but someone started using my PO credit card account yesterday and have made a fair few payments:mad: Not sure how its happened as only use the card abroad really and theyve been passport jobs but did use it online once. Anyhow the bank noticed at least so should all be ok. Just annoying as off on hols next week and have lost my commission free card as it stands.
That's very frustrating, and good job the bank spotted it :eek:"Good financial planning is about not spending money on things that add no value to your life in order to have more money for the things that do". Eoin McGee0 -
