Ugh, reworking out my debt etc and the original figure of £8282 is wrong

Anyway My initial aim is to pay off the following with a few additions
2 x overdrafts £850 total
1 x CC £2803.14
1 x CC £1483.40
Hitachi loan £3,014.12
Next account £462.94
Littlewoods account £470.34
This brings my new debt payoff aim to £9091.72
Thanks
