    I'm another one who's going to be struggling to make any significant reductions for the remainder of the year.

    I'll just have to see what I can do :(

    But chin up, just need to remind ourselves that what we've overpaid already won't ever need paying again.

    Good luck everybody.

    Yep, this.

    Sorry to do this Lomcevak but I've squeezed another OP through.
    Siphoned off the top of my ISA when moving rates.
    Another £94.
    Thats £206 for August for #10.

    The joint account is looking rather healthy and I can't figure out why! There may be another OP before the month is put 😀

    Thank you

    Hi number 105 here, managed to make a lump sum payment for august so along with my regular op this month so my August OP's will be £466.52, so taking me to a total of £6132.16, so have now reached my official £6k target for the year!!

    Will still be trying to make some monthly op's (fingers crossed) as I am trying to now hit my 10% limit allowed by the mortgage co this year.

    Thanks again Lomcevak for your work on this challenge.
