    I'd like to join you all please - I have a huge loan, currently £15,619.11 but with interest added monthly I reckon the total would be closer to £16,000 by the end of the year. So I'm going for £16000 please - not sure whether I can do it as my income is variable on a ZHC basis, but with my all-or-nothing temperament I figure it's better to aim high and fall short than to go at it halfheartedly..._party_:D

    Hi there,

    can I be added to the challege please?

    I need to get rid of £5380 in 2017, thank you

    Hi muppets,

    Can I be added to the challenge please?

    I would like a new number please - I didn't last very long this year and in actual fact almost tripled my debt and I was doing so well before that :'(

    £0/£11,334.69

    Bloody scares me writing that down! And I want to kick myself for getting in such a pickle.

    First step today and closed all of my credit card accounts (now aware it may have affected my credit rating but not much I can do about that now, I just didn't want any temptations!)

    Not sure on what I will be able to pay off as of yet, I just want to see it go down :)

    XxX

    Hello muppets et all,

    I would like to join please. My debt is £9400 on one card and I hope to be able to pay it off entirely by end of 2017. The goal is to pay about £500 / month and also pay 100% of my annual bonus towards the credit card. I don't deserve that bonus, I've already spent it (3x that amount).

    Thanks for adding me! Merry Christmas everyone!

    PS. Here's a link to my diary https://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/discussion/5546782

    Can I join too please? In the nicest possible way, I don't hope to be here long! I'm aiming to have my credit card clear, cancelled and cut up in the bin by the end of April so I can get down to some serious saving. I like the look of watching the numbers come down on here with the rest of you though, extra inspiration :)

    So my total to be paid off is £1828.21 (don't forget the 21p!) - getting me debt free

    Hi there

    Have just come from the 2016 thread where I logged 72% of my debt as being repaid in 2016. I am aiming to repay the remaining £760 now.

    Please assign me a number.

    Many thanks

    Bob
    Evening Bob and welcome back. You are #7 again this year. xx

    So here we are again Muppets? Back to where it all began!
    My new total for 2017 is £5338.09 (can't forget the 9p!)
    According to snowball website if i can pay £500 per month I should be debt free before November.
    As you can see the C1 card creeped up again but I've tackled it before and I'll smash it again!
    Evening Megano and welcome back. You are #36 again this year. xx

    Thanks for the number muppets

    I'm aiming to pay #008 £3000 off my debt but also need to save £6000 which is the estimated cost of a new bathroom. So could I put a total of £9000 please?

    If this is not allowed because some is savings and not debt payment then just £3000 please :)
    LBM = 07/09/13 Debt = £13339 (100% cleared)
