Payment A Day Chapter 18
Comments

Morning All,
I hope that you're all doing well. I finally decided to get my head out of the sand and move some money around so that I could clear as much of my two overdrafts as possible, as the daily fee was a bit :eek:.
So with a balance transfer to a 0% credit card, to buy me more time to get back into employment, my PAD offering today is a massive £1,400. I've managed to clear the smaller overdraft and cut the other one in half :j so I am feeling much better about things. It was getting me down too much.
Have a good day everyone,

Sorry I've missed the last 2 days I got really caught up in matched betting Cheltenham! Well worth it though, as soon as that money hits my account it'll be a PAD and a great one! I hate waiting for money to clear...
In the meantime I've looked at my credit cards and some promotional 0% deals are ending in the next 3 months, so I've done a balance transfer (to a card that offer 0% for 2 years with 0% fee) and now need to really focus on getting rid of the rest that's being charged interest.
So today I've paid £17.70 to Tesco.0 -

Some great PADs being made lately and, just as important, some clear decision making on what to do about debts. Sometimes you get in a bit of a rut just trying to deal with things and it's always good to take a step back and check you are doing the best you can, getting the best rates etc.
For me survey money has ennabled me to make a payment of £25 to balance cc2 today please.Every penny's a prisoner
