You really need to keep a spending diary of some kind!
If this is really correct then you should be able to pay things off pretty fast and then add the payments of the things you have paid off to this sum.
Amount left after debt repayments....... £531
If this is not correct then you need to find where this money is going urgently.“Time is intended to be spent, not saved” - Alfred Wainwright0 -

Absolutely! I'm going to keep a spending diary once I get paid in a couple of weeks time (only have money for food left in my bank account for this month so can't spend anything else till then!)0 -
I started a self-managed DMP in December so have managed to get all my creditors to stop interest and charges.
Hi Sheila, I'd love to know how you went about this. I'm currently in debt myself and the high interest makes me feel like I'm never going to pay it off :A
Any advice would be appreciated, tia0
