Hi all,
After a disappointing month last month where my debt total increased, I have managed a £500 payment towards this:
#134 - £1505.28/£3672.27 (please can my debt total be updated on the front page too as disheartening as that is haha!)0 -
Feeling a bit grumpy today.
New gas bill has come in....£723.38, so that is really going to slow down paying off debt.
How can companies charge so much for gas, really makes me annoyed.2017 [STRIKE]48000[/STRIKE]
