Afternoon all,
£40 for me today please
made some money on ebay which was supposed to be my operation fund....couldn't resist paying it off my target MBNA card....very naughty of me but I still have some in there
Let’s just pretend I have not been alternately drowning in debt or only eating toast to try and pay it off for the last 20 years 😭0 -
Hi All,
A quick PAD of £1 to MBNA please LMD.
Ahall - I was offered a 0% interest deal from MBNA, which I have taken gladly. So I managed to extend my 0% deal from April to November next year. So I can breathe a little. And buy some time to sign on and find a job.
Keedie,
