  • Well I've not been on here for about a week now and have got loads of posts to catch up on but thought I'd update my total.

    Made a payment today to barclaycard so my new total is:

    #114 £525.65/£15,962.80

    Well after being super efficient I forgot to note my new loan doesn't start till February. Hurray! Emergency trip to the vet! Boo! Direct debit tried to be claimed for a mobile phone for £161.00 this morning! Boo. Stuck a complaint in and got some money knocked off but they can't tell me the final bill! :undecided. Phone landline to see if someone is stealing my broadband for work and got a cheaper package!

    However back to case in hand No 149 adjustment to my debt levels! £4442.91 Amount paid now 31.16%

    And its only Monday! Is it wine time yet!

    well first day back at work not so bad, got though it and survived. Sophie a bit gurney with her dad this afternoon but he survived aswell and needs to get used to it. Also i just received confirmation from equifax that a late payment will remain of your account for 6 years after the account is fully closed, defaulted or written off which is a bit pants really but the day is nearing bath time and i need it today !

    Glad you first day was ok rosiest :)

    Ugh I hate the waiting game, I just seem to be waiting for everything at the minute! Waiting for DLA to decide if they are renewing my claim, waiting for ESA to decide if they will accept my appeal, waiting for the council to tell me what school Jake has been placed in . . . oh and waiting for the council to decide Lilys school aswell :eek: not to mention my DLA money :o I did ring and ask where it was and the rather gentle reply (I think she'd answered alot of the same question this week :o) was did I remember that they paid everyone a week early in december due to christmas so it would be 5 weeks and my money was actually due tomorrow :o

    Never mind, can pay some bills tomorrow, that will cheer me up :rotfl:
