And finally... Equifax now has my credit score as 'fair' instead of 'poor'. Woo hoo, nothing like someone giving you a virtual pat on the back like that!Starting my journey July 2011.

Baby steps but that's another debt slayed :j Next is no more and as it was the one I was least likely to remember to pay and therefore making a constant impact on my credit report, I'm glad to see the back of it.
Right, plan for this week, actually look at the credit cards, CC2 I don't owe that amount on but as hubby uses it for work and they pay it back (eventually!!!) I actually need to sit down with the statements and work out who has paid back what! What's left of my owing I will pay back by the end of the week. Anyone know of an interest calculator so I can divide up my spending vs his and work out what interest was mine?
Off to clear the loft now, was going to do the insulation then a nice man said he'd do it for free however there's 8 years of junk wedged in thereStarting my journey July 2011.

Anyone remember the MSE email a couple of weeks ago about random stuff people have ebayed? Well I stuck a broken vtech and games on and it's up to over £10 already despite being listed as not working at all, people will buy anything! Funny the MD joked the other week about ebaying our postassium iodate tablets (work next to a nuclear power station), seems I should have taken him seriously!Starting my journey July 2011.
