I tried to do that once and they wouldn't let me, said I couldn't pay off credit with credit, so I guess that means it does not work the same way as a balance transfer. However if you do find a way of transferring it to 0% I would be interested to know![STRIKE]Family £400[/STRIKE] CC1 [STRIKE]£415[/STRIKE] Lloyds [STRIKE]£460[/STRIKE] [STRIKE]Natwest£750[/STRIKE] £627.59 Tesco [STRIKE]£1880[/STRIKE] £1725 Grand total £2,352.59

Hi all,
Paid off another small one! I am now waiting for the last cc bill for this month, and will put this months council tax towards it, as none for us to pay in February or March.
#102 £246.41/£8696.48LBM 1.1.16 = £27096.59 - now £17,020.38
Paydbx 2017 - £3588.90/£7000 = 51.27% - number 74
Paydbx 2016 - £6487.31/£7000 = 92.67% - number 740 -
108 back again!
More payments made - now at £1723.05/£10,000 so far.
I've set up my account to make automatic payments daily to my cc and it seems to be working. I've always been guilty of paying less than I could to my cc just in case I needed the cash for something else. By paying it daily it's still getting paid but it reduces the 'what if' factor as I don't worry I've sunk everything into repayments and not left enough for emergencies over the course of the month.0 -
A small payment of £32.60 towards my debt now standing at #101 £264.78/2500....have done so much better than i anticipated...have managed so far to stick to a £100 food budget and £100 petrol budget for the month...not easy but doable! :A
