  • ANYTHING helps. I started by paying off a £1 here and there extra on my repayments. Then I managed to get a part time job so I can pay off more. (I also sold stuff on eBay that I did not want anymore)

  • please don't apologise for the amount you are paying, it's all money and any amount is better going towards your debt and working towards your debt free future. I dont think this thread will give 'bad' weeks, the fact that we're doing one payment a week will make everyone a good week. Wow where did the david icke in me come from :cool:
