Paying off my overdraft!!

After years and years of living in my horrendously expensive Halifax overdraft, I'm now refreshing my internet banking screen every few minutes because I can now *finally* pay off my overdraft as soon as my wages appear! Hopefully they'll not be too long...

  • That's great news, congratulations! :beer:
    There's a thread on here somewhere where people post when they've paid an individual debt off, you should go and track it down :)

    I hope you weren't up too late, sometimes my wages don't come through until 6am :(

    I gave up refreshing at about 12:20am as I couldn't stay awake much longer. As I got into bed I checked again and the money had been paid in, so off I went and cancelled the overdraft! Such a liberating feeling! I never thought seeing £0.00 on my online banking would be so great, but when it's next to the overdraft, it's fantastic!
  • Isn't it just? So pleased for you :beer:
