    Corr, I wish I got money back unexpectedly. Usually the other way around!:A


    I know, I almost couldn't believe it. I got a letter last week from my bank saying that they hadn't clearly informed their loan customers that they could pay their loans back early and reduce the amount of interest payable on the loan. They therefore were giving everyone back the interest they had paid for the time they weren't clearly informed :J
    LBM = 07/09/13 Debt = £13339 (100% cleared)

    £250 paid to B/C today - this amount's primarily made up of money refunded from my energy supplier. I had a thought that although they were giving me 3% on my credit balance, my credit cards were accruing interest at a much higher rate than that! :doh:Minor LBM....refund requested...

    #85 £2682.64/£25,000 10.72%

    I've broken through the 10% barrier :j
