    £75.00 Extra for me this week.

    CC provider have dropped my direct debit minimum payment dramatically, and are sending me lots of offers.(my DH has a much lower balance on his card with them and they have still dropped mine below his!! ) There must be some trigger for them to spot the regular overpayments because it isn't the balance and we are both on 0% .

    I am just topping up in my weekly payments with the amount they have reduced!! Then it will be DH card that will be the next target to be blitzed :)
  • Paid £90 today. Getting there :)

    Hi everyone. I've just joined up today and this thread caught my eye. I know it's over halfway through the year but better late than never! I've started my extra payments already with a bank account skim of £7.93 to one of my many credit cards. Just another £817.07 to go on this one... 😳
