    Thanks abba :)

    I relisted some bits yesterday, converted a couple to BIN and reduced the price on some others. One of the BINs has sold already, and I've sold another item too, so I'll be able to make a small payment today. I also received £3 from a survey site so will add that too.

    Hi Jwil, sales are going well :T

    I'm confused by your totals though. The first number on the sig is your loan, yes, so £8,942 to pay? Then is the list above (£5,023) the total of the other debts you owe? If so that adds up to £13,965. Is the second number on your sig meant to be the total debt? If so either I'm missing something or you have less to pay off than you thought!!

    I'm a bit of a nerd who has to make figures agree, excuse the geekiness!!
    0% card was £1126.91 / Now £1502.37

    Other debts paid since 1/1/14: £17,005

    Thanks tattycath :)

    :wave: hello mfmaybe :) Thanks for popping in.

    You are correct, the first figure is my loan. The other figures won't mean anything but to me. I haven't posted my total debts on here. It's a lot!

    I set myself targets each month for what I'd like to pay off various things in an ideal world - some are debts, some are just bills etc. Obviously I don't get anywhere near it, but I like to try :D

    One day I'll post my debt I'm sure, but at the moment I want to focus on the loan, so the rest is ticking over.

    Ah ok gotcha ;). Sorry for being rude/nosy! I can understand not wanting to post on here, though of course no-one will judge.

    Best of luck, you seem very focused.

    Thank you :) That's ok, it's not rude/nosy, it's a perfectly reasonable question! I will pop it all up one day, but it's too much for me to cope with at the moment, so I like to focus on one thing.
