    my monthly payment has gone through - my new balance is

    # 2 - £6,596 / £7,500

    have had to help mum move house and help financially a bit too but should be back on track with some overpayments this month. I just discovered £32 to claim in my TCB account so have requested that. I am also nearly at £10 in SBucks so a good start for week one. :D

    This month I noticed a big difference in the interest I am paying in my loan which is all good.
