    Never joined the previous threads like this. But this year, I have paid £3,590 off my debts. It would have been nearly 6K had my roof not leaked, fridge broke etc etc but at least I had the money to mend and replace rather than borrowing it :D

    So ACCUMULATED TOTAL £109,472.37
    LBM.....sometime in 2013 £27,056. 10 creditors
    June 20.....£7,587.....3 creditors left 72% paid

    £26,200 on interest only part of mortgage (July 16)...will chip away £17,103
    £49,200 repayment mortgage ( July 16) £37,764
  • We paid £11,160.

    Accumulated total is .... £120,632.37

    This is very similar to my story - new boiler in the summer, plus £450 of car repairs and other house fixes cost £3k.

    Had these things happened two years ago they would have added to by debt, instead, in 2015, I could cope. Imagine how much money we have saved on interest/fees alone by getting organised. I actually feel prouder of being able to cope with this emergency spending than my actual debt reduction!
  • I paid off a total of £9624.99

    plus ben75's £2878 (I think?)

    Accumulated total is .... £133,135.36

    I was winging it tbh. Roof started leaking couple years ago, door has let rain in for years. I had saved for roof but I'm fortunate that my kids are so supportive and will pay up front if I haven't saved my target. This year however ...... There will be a proper emergency fund in place
