debt percentage calculator?

A couple of months ago i went on a website can't remember which one. But what you did was put all your creditors and their amounts you owe them then you put in how much you would be paying each month. Once you have done that it will tell you how much £ each creditor got .Has anyone come across this on a website :confused:

    Would this work:

    Add up your total amount of debt....so say for example you owe:

    Barclaycard £350
    Marbles £1200
    Mint £450

    Total debt = £2000

    Then for Barclaycard it would be £350 (amount owed to Barclaycard) divided by £2000 (total amount of debt) x 100 = 17.5

    So 17.5% of your debt is with Barclaycard.

    If you do that with each creditor you will know what percentage is with each one.

    **If this is wrong, please will someone correct me....according to ZTD, pregnancy can cause 8% shrinkage of the brain....that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!**

    absolutely rght Snaggles - nothing wrong with your brain at all!...
    instead of 100 you could multiply by the amount you have to pay your creditors to work out what your pro-rata offer would be.
