Opinions on my plan to clear my debt

But taking this option the debt would move over, not an additional debt, and take less time?
How many times have I convinced myself and my OH that our debt consolidation loans were just this - not additional debt but moving them across and taking less time. We then found ourselves unable to cope, borrowing more and spiralling out of control.
I would stick with paying the DMP and not borrowing more in any way, shape or form.DFW Nerd No. 1484 LBM 07/01/15 Debt was £95k :eek: Now debt free and happy :j0 -

I agree totally. Been there done that also, hence the reason I am on here along with many others
Hope you work out what's best for you.
Good luck
