    My DFD is 7th Jan 15, when I sell my car pay off the rest of the loan on it (just over £2000 and hoping to sell for just over £6000) then a week later get on a jet plane and fly away!!!!! :T
    Thanks to money saving tips and debt repayments/becoming debt free I have been able to work and travel for the last 4 years visiting 12 countries and working within 3 of them. Currently living and working in Canada :beer: :dance:
  • Total debt £20700. DFD August 2016:eek::eek:

    My DFD is currently December 2016, but that is going by bare minimum payments...I am hoping to shave at least 6 months off by overpaying and throwing in the odd extra payment when I can :)
    DFD - 12/2016 with 6.7% paid as of 07/14
    £ saved = 168.16 lbs lost = 4
    Weekly Spend Challenge(7/9) £20/£0
    Sept GC - £78.11/£300 Sept NSD's = 4
    OS Weight Loss Challenge - 0lb/5lb

    But my credit cards should all pay off between March and August 2016, leaving just my (now defaulted) loan.

    Mine has been and gone.

    I became DF in June 2013.

    With the help of Pay Plan I repaid £24k in 90 months.

    About 2 years 6 months away, but am aiming for 24 months - i.e. September 2016 at around £500/month via Step Change... Obviously, if I can clear them faster I will... can't wait. Should have done this a long time ago! :(
