Hi everyone.I have just totalled all of my outgoings each month to pay off debts.I owe around £4000 and pay at least £500 a month to them.I am considering a personal loan to then only have one repayment a month but am worried about being tied into this for a few more years,in case if something happens and i cant afford the repayments.I owe
£2300 m&s more card (3.9% life of balance though)
£460 Egg card
£480 Loan
£620 lloyds tsb visa (16.9%!!!)
Im not so bothered about the loan as it is only 2 payments left on that now to pay it off but i dont know if a loan for the others would be beneficial.I see loan rates at the minute are approx 6%.
Any advice anyone?
