  • Another 8 hours overtime done today. Can't wait to clear another debt in full.

    Which debt is next TTGU? You are doing ever so well! I am glad you are still on the waggon :j
  • I think the overdraft because there is only £250 left on it!! then the monthly direct debit I have set up for that can just be transfered over to another debt :)

    Just trying to work out the percentage I have paid so far to give me a bit motivation..

    This week I seem to have gone mad with spending, no overpayments made on anything :(

    I have however got an incorrect gone away marker removed from my credit file..And am now in the processes of trying to have a default date backdated.. Long story.. pretty much my defaulted account showed as 3 payments late for 10 months before defaulting and I am hoping they will change this as I have read that if an account goes without payment for 6 months at the most then it should be defaulted. Fingers crossed they take even a few months off it and it will drop off my credit report that wee bit sooner...

  • Its almost pay day again!!

    Feel this month will be an expensive one tho!! All these people I know with birthdays in May, ridiculous :( hehe

    I really want to clear my £250 overdraft but not sure I will have enough m oney to do this. I am going to maybe try and set up an ebay account or sell old uni books to make sure I reach this target!

  • The overdraft will be gone this month....

    Started a thread to encourage me to do this....

    '£185 in May 2013, thats £5.96 per day...'

    Surely finding £5.96 can not be that difficult? We shall see :)
