Ok I am going to say it! I have avoided setting a date as I have been here so many times before but this time seems different somehow!
Anyway - will be under 15k by the end of Dec 2014, then will have 5 months to clear andother 4k (to get it paid whilst 0% intrest) then keep going at that rate with the CC that would be left for 5 months leaving me with just the loan - that ends August 2016 but aim to pay it off by Dec 2015 - so aiming for
DEC 2015!!!
Now if i manage to get a PPI claim to come through it might be sooner! Fingers and toes crossed!0 -
Snowball says July 2016 but aiming for dec 2015!Debt as at 5 June 2023 - £15,600.89
