    Hello all,

    £6000 debt (house renovations got slightly out of control!)

    Payment starting today of 100 / 6000

    Good luck everyone!

    Welcome to the challenge Moneysaverme :) You've made a great start! I'm sure the house renovations were worth it. Good luck with the debtbusting :)
