Hello everyone!
My most recent milestone is breaking through 90% paid back and I am almost at the 100% mark;)
As I am almost debt-free, I thought I would break down the remaining time into weeks and I have just 8 weeks left. We have paid back a massive £44,885 and have just £1,326 left to pay:D
I've put the champagne on ice for now and will just have a large G&T with ice:cool:
Happy New Year to you all:)

We are now £1 under £70k debt:j
Just two years ago joined this forum and went into setting up a DMP owing almost £95k. Payments didn't start until March. So 22 months of DMP has seen our debt reduce by in excess of £24K. Prior to being on a DMP our debt just stagnated (treading water paying interest), or increased.
We haven't paid £24k because we have been fortunate enough to settle one debt at a discount....but it all counts to me
Sounds daft to be so ecstatic at sub £70k debt, but that's meDFW Nerd No. 1484 LBM 07/01/15 Debt was £95k :eek: Now debt free and happy :j0 -
