Grr not a happy MIT. I called Halifax re 0% balance transfer and I cannot utilise it which is gutting. I was sent a letter a long time ago that stated that my interest rate would rise if I kept the account open and I closed the account but held the balance and have been repaying it ever since. Because there is still a balance the account has a balance transfer offer on it but because I closed the account it cannot be reinstated. When I asked why the offer was there I couldn't get an answer except that I couldn't use it. Annoying.com. Never mind5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60

Paid £70 to CC so I definitely reach my £350 target along with my minimum payments. The £70 payment has made a £200 difference to my snowball . Just shows how much difference overpayments make. I am motivated again folks xx5 Year plan. April 2020 to June 2025- CC and mortgage free by time I'm 60

I only just realised this diary was here.
Hope you don't mind a subscriber - I have 32 sausages in my freezer if that helps to establish my credentials
