The 'extra payment every week' challenge

Thundercatsarego

Hi there - I'd love to join this please!
It's great for me as I have only one outstanding credit card owing and I'm getting married on 23 December 2012, so would like the credit card as low as possible in case it is needed for emergency wedding funds! I intend to pay an extra £5 a week off this.
The only problem is that I don't know how to do a signature on here... any help?!!! Thank you

Hi and welcome!
At the top of this page there is a green bar with lots of headings. Click on the one that says 'Quick links' and choose 'Edit my signature'. You can put anything you want there.

WOW! I'm thrilled that so many of you are joining me in this challenge. For me a payment a day is impossible but I just thought I could pay a little bit extra each week. For some of you on here, your payments will be large and for some of us it will be small, sometimes only pence or pounds but what we must remember is that EVERY SINGLE PAYMENT COUNTS.

I really am thrilled to have started a challenge that so many of you think will help you.

Please remember to keep your sig updated and at the end of each month I shall keep a running total of the total we have all paid off together.

Keep going guys WE CAN DO IT!!! :j:T

I have just made my EXTRA PAYMENT FOR THIS WEEK. I paid £4.00 off my capital one account. YAH!!!!! FOr some reason it won't let me update my signature. It keeps saying error: BB size too big (or words to that effect)
ANy ideas????

I've just made my first payment in this challenge - £3 off my overdraft, I rounded down the money in my bank a/c (unfortunatley it has to be 'round pounds' only so couldnt do the extra 8p!)

Keep it up everyone x

Hi I would like to join this group but as i said this is my first posting so do not know what im doing, so please be patience with me. We have several credit cards that we only ever pay minimum so I thought that this would help me to finally get some in road on them, so from friday i will pay something off of one of them everyweek for at least this year.:)

Yay Craftycarole, :jyou've made the first step, welcome to the challenge. You've also made your first post too which is great. Don't forget to update your signature every week so we can all motivate each other. Plus I can see easily then what to add up for the group totals at the end of each month. x

CraftyCarole: In case you're not sure how to do your signature: If you go to the green bar at the top of this page and click on 'user CP' (that's your control panel) then on the left hand side bar click update signature. You can then type something and it will be addedd to the end of each of your posts. We are all keeping a running total of what we have paid off in extra payments and at the end of each month I will add up what the group total is and post it to help keep us all motivated. xxx

Hi

I've just checked my Paylpal account and found £18.64 in there which is working its way towards a debt as we speak Think I need to take some photos to sell on Ebay to fill my account back up now

Hi - I'd like to join in with this as well. I've just transferred my credit cards onto a 0% rate card, but as soon as that goes through, I'll get on with making the additional payments.
