    Morning,

    Want to get back into recording my pads.

    Can I clarify if it's every payment or just every payment over the minimum payment per debt?

    Thanks

    Just popping in to congratulate redkelly on your debt clearance - that must feel fantastic

    Mummybear - I don't think there's hard and fast rules but I always included all payments as it was all going to debt clearance
