    You need to work out exactly how many creditors you have and what percentage of your total debt you owe them before you can work out what percentage of the bonus to pay them.

    So you owe 18% of your total debt (£36000) to this creditor (the one you owe £6639 to) which means you should pay them 18% of your bonus or £540.

    I think that's right, my maths isn't always amazing! :)
    Savings target: £25000/£25000
