Italy is at end of the month and I am so excited This has been my dream and after everything we are going through its deserved. Still awaiting news on new mortgage
Debt (1/9/14) £6,702.11 Debt free (30/11/2016) mortgage port- £70,077.82 and mortgage £126,517.39 o/s currently
Debt - £17,190.83 (29/7/22) now (19/8/22) £16,688.80
Firstly the case was dropped we won!!! It is all over with. Secondly, we have now moved we are all so much happier where we are now in our new home and away from the drama.
So since we have moved we have colluded our income and joint income and also debt combined. It has increased as right now the garden is being renovated. JP has previous cards. I also have increased debt which I am throwing money at to get rid .
I have booked Disney Paris for January to surprise the boys at Christmas so excited! JP also got new job at Scot Rail which is lot more money and I got a promotion in NHS Junior Services Manager which means at Christmas I can hand my notice in at hospital and just work one job Reason I am waiting is so we can chuck money at debt.
Archie is starting a new nursery shortly two mornings a week and we are just settling. Connor starts high school in few weeks also. Got both all their stuff in.
Debt is
MBNA (JP before met us) - £5,472.68 (paying £60 per month) Virgin (JP before met us) - $4,303.61 (paying £440 per month - gone for Christmas goal) Barclay (garden reno - I would have waited but someone is impulsive) - £4,980 (paying £150-300 per month) Paypal (me) - £285.19 (paying £100 per month - gone by November) Credit C (me) £668.59 (paying £150 per month - gone by Christmas) Credit C (me again Disney Paris and no regrets!) £1,290.76 (paying £60 per month increasing when others clear) Overdraft - £250 last
We both have increased income starting next month by £500 per month on top of our wages, this will start going down very quick
Current - £17,190.83
Plus our mortgage but just do monthlys at moment
Next month should be - £16,120.83
Back on it

So glad that the court stuff is settled and they saw sense and found in your favour, must be so much less stress for you. Life is busy enough without other people making trouble.

Morning so JP wages were less than what it should be but it will be backdated next month and be a huge hit on bills.
So this month its now looking like this -
Debt is
MBNA (JP before met us) - £5,472.68 (paying £60 per month) now £5412.68 Virgin (JP before met us) - $4,303.61 (paying £440 per month - gone for Christmas goal) - now £4203.61 Barclay (garden reno - I would have waited but someone is impulsive) - £4,980 (paying £150-300 per month) now £4830 Paypal (me) - £285.19 (paying £100 per month - gone by November) now £185.19 Credit C (me) £668.59 (paying £150 per month - gone by Christmas) now £589.52 Credit C (me again Disney Paris and no regrets!) £1,290.76 (paying £60 per month increasing when others clear) £1230.76 Overdraft - £250 last
Last month - £17,190.83

Next month will be a massive chunk with me now on my higher band and JP backdated wages should be a massive chunk... just for that month still going down anyway so thats main thing
