    Hi Amara, did you mean theres another thread or do we still use this one? Just unsure with the first post not updated with out details? Just hate to think im missing anything! :rotfl:
    No, I meant this thread. I haven't done an updating , as I had no time, but is done now.

    To early starters: that's great you're so keen to get rid of debt, however, to be fair to all challengers, I'll update your payments when our challenge start officially.

    I'm not sure if I'll manage this, but it's worth a try...

    My first debt to be rid of in 100 days is my highest interest credit card, currently at 888.

    At my current rate of paying it back, I would be done by June next year, so I'm cutting a few months off! But broken down to an amount per day, that's only £8.88 per day, which doesn't sound so bad... :think:
    Debt: [STRIKE]£8652[/STRIKE]£8550:eek:
    Honeymoon and post-job savings: £50/£1100,
    DFD target: December 2015
    Saving for Xmas 15 #35: - £4/£365

    Hi Amara

    Can I join please. I have done this once before and being so close to paying everything off I need to make a final push.

    I have a debt of £300 owed to mum, the rest of my debts are on a DMP.

    It's only £3 per day. Surely I can do it.
    1 debt v's 100 days chapter 34: T3sco bank CC £250/£525.24 47.59%

    [STRIKE]MBNA - [/STRIKE]GONE, [STRIKE]CAP ONE[/STRIKE] GONE, [STRIKE]YORKS BANK [/STRIKE]GONE, [STRIKE]VANQUIS[/STRIKE] GONE [STRIKE] TESCO - [/STRIKE], GONE
    TSB CARD, TSB LOAN, LLOYDS. FIVE DOWN, THREE TO GO.
