    Afternoon all, put my usual £120 on again today so total paid now


    £1489.99/£2268


    feels like it's becoming a realistic target now and I know with a few extra payments it'll be gone within 6 months...can't wait!

    Decided to clear one debt this month - so this is now the final update for April. Have had to really jiggle stuff to do this, so payments for next couple of months will be lower as I need to 'repay' other accounts... HEre goes.....

    APR FIGURES: total paid this month is £10548.02 - meaning YTD total is £12808.40/ £18694.38 (68.5%) for #15

    Running update:

    (OH) VW 9580 - repay all/ Apr paid 8674/ YTD Paid 9580 :j :j
    (me) HMRC 565.40 - repay all / Apr Paid 0/ YTD paid 565.40 :j
    (OH) PO CC 3339 - repay all / Apr Paid 1785.00/ YTD paid £2439 (73%)
    (me) Hlfx CC 5209.98 - repay all / Apr Paid 89.02/ YTD paid £224 (4.3%)
    Totals: 18694.38 / Mth paid £10548.02/ YTD paid 12808.40 (68.5%)
