Payment A Day Chapter 15

Hey all, :hello:
I have decided to bite the bullet and round up all of my debts which were NOT 0% and consolidate them with another loan. It felt wrong to be applying for additional credit, especially when I am so keen to be free of it! However I know its the most sensible thing to do, and can overpay or repay the new loan without penalty if I save enough!
So I have cleared off
Barclaycard (28.9% :eek: )
Car Finance (20.89% :eek: )
OVerdraft reduced by £1000!
And some of Nat West CC
The other CCs are 0% and will be cleared off by the SO payments before the end of the 0% period so I saw no point in paying them off.
So total paid off, is technically £8253
But I now owe a total of £8593 on the loan... So my total debts are roughly the same but the amount of interest I can save is worth it, and its easier having one debt to PAD now instead of 5... :j

Milky, Im not sure to be honest!
Technically its debt which has been paid off, so I gave you the total. But I have new debt in its place, so am not sure if you would include this or not? I don't mind either way...
So kicking off todays PADs, I am chipping away at the Natw3$t CC £34.86 DD and £15.00 SO
= £49.86
Happy PADding everyoneSometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying
