Another chunk off the balance, leaving £2,250 remaining. Still hoping that by saving a bit aside every month I'll be able to clear that a few months early.174 BPM >> CC Balance (0%) -£3,565.99 - Target DFD Dec 2017 >> Loan (Car) (3.1%) -£19,803.74 - Target DFD Nov 20200 -
Well done Ellieseleven on becoming debt free - amazing achievement!!:T
I've now managed to sort a month's worth of weekly pay in a regular savings account alongside my FD current account - earning a pittance in interest but it's more about paying myself monthly from it than anything else, so I should now be able to live on what I earn rather than living from weekly pay to weekly pay...
So this month, my regular loan payment has come out and I've put another £581.43 towards it, making a total payment of £984.98 this month so far, but hope to pay more at the end of the month if there's anything left!

Thanks to a £3k rebate from the tax man and some early inheritance from the bank of mum and dad (£2k) we have managed to pay a whopping £6726 off our debts in February!!!
We are going for a loan free date of end of April and CC free date of beginning of June.
I'm starting to see the light at the end of the very dark and long 5+ year tunnel now.
Keep it up everyone! We can do this!
Crunchy xx
