Well done everyone!!!
I've paid £370.43 so far this month to the goal I have on here.
Everyone's payments are at different times and my January didn't start until 25th when I got paid so my Jan payments continue until Feb 25th when I'm paid again. Not that it matters as it's 2015 we're working for
There will be more - I am feeling so focussed! I've even added it to my signature.Debt - CCV £3792
CCB £1383 (took a hit for a holiday)
Loan 1 £1787
Loan 2 £1683

Hi All
Is it ok to join as I have a debt of £389.00 which I need to pay off by Jan 2016 or else they will add interest of £300.00 nearly doubling the debt. A moment of madness I know but it is done now so the amount of interest is motivation in itself!!
I have already set up a bank account that I will transfer money into as and when I can and already have £30.00 in there and am hoping I can pay it off before December - fingers crossed

Paid 6k off since Nov 2014- this brings me down to around 14k total. I'm finding using a spreadsheet tracker (income versus outgoings)- and sticking to it religiously- is the key.Total Debt (Nov 2014): £19814.55 (April 2015) £13,500.00Strategy: ~90% of pay cheque on debt repayment until December 2015."Insert profound saying here".0

Another £20 off one of the CC's bringing my running total to £614. At this rate I should be done by June which is my new goal! The plan is to be debt free(£3020), save for the extension (£6000) and save an emergency fund(£4500). This will be a total of £13,520. I would like the bulk of it to be done by June but will happily settle for complete ion by the end of the year.
So far this year in savings and debt clearance £2920 / £13500.
