    Sorry i haven't posted in a while, i pay off throughout the month but only really update balances once a month. So i am currently standing at £1242.93/£7500 which if my maths is correct is 16%, not as much as i'd like but blooming better than if i'd just left it to minimum payments.

    Take Care all,
