Ok it is well known I am easily pleased.......
I have just paid my car tax, a full year, yes a full year.
I am totally delighted
Without wishing to sound cocky I will be in a position to pay the full year insurance when it is up too, in cash, first time ever. Ok watch the roof fall in now I have said that!!!!

Well done :T ours is due January and we're hoping to do the same. Always done 6 mths and paid more in the past. Not house ins too though. You've done really well saving for both. Fingers crossed for the roof0 -
Hi all,
Just checked my Barclaycard account online and the next due payment has been changed to match the CCCS payment. I am taking this as good news that the offer has been accepted? Also, the planned interest is £25, not the usual £95 so again good news I think that they have at least reduced interest rates. I have not received anything in writing from them. How long should I wait before contacting them to try and get interest stopped completely?
Thanks

DFD - 11.07.2019 (OMG).
New DFD is 28.10.2018 due to paying the absolute maximum.
Thanks to everyone on the DMP forum, and to SC for helping me out of this huge hole.0 -

Good news I'd say
You can ask each month if you like, depending on how much energy you have

I have plenty of energy at present. Want to reduce the length of the DMP by as much as possible obviously.
It was the 3 years of being swamped by debts that left me with no energy, the DMP has literally been a lifeline.
I think I will wait until they have at least received my first DMP payment.
Thanks

We never got phone calls from creditors, so you might not hear anything.
Plus there is a letter you can send to ask the creditors to only contact you by letterOur LBM: Dec 2011. DMP started: Jan 2012. Debt at LBM: £41,568
