  • Congratulations!!!

    I woke up to the reality of debt about 3 weeks ago. Whilst only a small amount (in comparison to others) £5400, I took lots of advice from this site.

    I am now in a Debt Management Plan with a FREE DMP company (payplan) and my debt free date is Nov 2015!

    I cant wait!


    again, fantastic result for you! Enjoy your happy, debt free life going forward!! :)
  • Fantastic, very well done:j

    Wow– thank you all so much for your lovely messages, reading through them is starting to make this all seem very real now.

    Artytart/ HeadInTheSand / Victoria Ke / RunbeforeIcanwalk– as has been said many times on this forum facing up to our debt is in many ways the toughest moment in the journey....but once you know what you’re dealing with you put yourself into a position of control and that’s a great place to be. I wish you all the luck in the world as you work your way towards your own debt free day and will be cheering you on from the sidelines xx

    Mrsb83– massive congratulations to you too on your debt freeness :T
