    No 89 reporting a really good month with £10,041.67 saved :):):)

    Slowly fading - I made a mistake on my submitted form for this month. I'll try and do it again but please can you use this figure. Thanks :)

    Hi - sorry to be a pain but you've made an error on my entry on the spread sheet for this month. I declared £10,041.67 and you've put me down as only £1,041.67 Would you be able to update it when you have a chance. Many thanks :)

    Declaring £2,459.59 for March, breakdown below.

    HTB ISA - £200
    Sharesave - £223
    Nationwide RS - £500
    P2P - £1,536.59

    Posted my S&S ISA Transfer form yesterday, moving to AJ Bell YouInvest. I know they're not the cheapest, but they have recently improved their regular/dividend re-investment services which now satisfy my requirements that previously only HL could do. Fingers crossed it goes through smoothly, and once its all moved to YouInvest I will probably be contributing more as I make the most of its flexible regular investment service!

    Keep up the great saving all!

    Declaring £1,812.80 for April, breakdown below.

    HTB ISA - £200
    Sharesave - £223
    Nationwide RS - £500
    P2P - £889.80

    S&S ISA transfer still on-going, HL took the transfer fees yesterday so I'm hoping its soon. Anyone have any experience with transferring either from HL or to AJ Bell? Especially on timeframes..? Im transferring shares, investment trusts and ETFs only.

    After 2 months of unavoidable and huge (for me at least) expenses, I am very happy to be able to declare £3,400 for June! Hopefully later this month I should be able to salt away some more. Good luck everyone, as always, it is so uplifting to see and read about how well everyone is doing!
    I'm trying to remember to pay my future self first!
