OK, managed to squeeze another £18.75 off the CC ...

I've dropped the monthly payment to £100 for May to December, so by then the balance should be £1,150.
I've bumped up my savings so when December rolls around, I should be in a position to pay the remaining balance before Christmas.174 BPM >> CC Balance (0%) -£3,565.99 - Target DFD Dec 2017 >> Loan (Car) (3.1%) -£19,803.74 - Target DFD Nov 20200 -
