Hi
I am a newbie/returner to this and although I have been on the forum before I haven't been around for about 2 or 3 years.
I would like to do the 1% challenge for my first CC which stands at around £14200!! therefore my 1% is £142.
I already have £40 towards this from ebay sales but still have a long ways to go.
Good luck everyone0 -
Can I join please? I'm going to focus on 1 CC for now which is at £4415 so my 1% is £44.15 not my biggest cc unfortunately but it seems a more achievable 1% to start with
Not far off a yougov payment of £50 so hopefully that'll be 1% by the end of this month.1 debt vs 100 days -

Change of plan- have transferred the £4415 card to 0% for 42 months tonight and set up a dd so it will be clear by the end of that.
My new 1% will be my £2681.13 card which is only at 0% for 9 months. So 26.82 is my 1% - should be able to colour in those squares at a good rate Have drawn out my grid ready to start colouring in. 1 debt vs 100 days -
