Hi guys,

Long time reader, have finally deceided to post and get some help.

I want to be debt free and need some help formulating a plan on how to do so!

I have a personal loan of around 5000,
A credit card with 2400
And a £2000 overdraft.

I currently earn around £1200 a month and after all bills etc have £500ish disposable a month.

I really want to make a start clearing my debts so any help would be very much appreciated.

Regards

Krisa
