Annual money health check

COOLTRIKERCHICK

I supposed to be doing other things, but I have got side tracked, and I am now doing the well over due annual money health check..

Even though you get things all sorted, things do change, so a review of EVERY bit of money that comes in an out of the house needs a check.

With the cost of living going up and up, I think I should make time and do this on a 6 monthly basis.

I have managed to save £6.99 by cancelling one DD to Equifax... had this as last year someone had taken loans out in my name with payday loans, so to watch what was happening with my credit info etc I signed up to them to keep an eye on things..( so just saved £83.88)

So the thread is basically to remind people to do an Annual money health check.....

I cancelled my Experian membership that I've had for the last 8 years 2 months ago. It used to cost 6.99 and they put it up to 9.99 which I thought was ridiculous so I stopped wasting money on it. Where is the logic in companies putting prices UP and Up in a recession so that more members leave?

A really good idea for a thread, I think it is very easy to just get into the habit of paying direct debits every month without really thinking about it.

I saved quite a bit this year just by reviewing things like car insurance and house insurance.
