    I haven't been on here in quite a while, I'll be honest I've been a bit down as I'll not clear my debt this year again due to my heating boiler breaking :( So instead of my amount decreasing it has increased by £400 :(

    I am working on it though, I'll be listing lots of items on selling sites tomorrow in the hope they sell and I can put any money made towards my credit card.
    I've done well in keeping to one of my targets of the year which was decluttering my house - so my target for next year, and all my focus is going towards paying my debt off next year and having some savings instead.

    If I can pay £300 off my debt by Christmas this year I'll be happy.

  • Hi there

    Reporting in with my October payment: #23 payment of £620.33 bringing total to £6,403.45 / £7,000

    So will hopefully meet my 2018 repayment target. I still have a way to go to clear all my credit card debt but this challenge has helped me make sure that I kept on track and I have cleared any 0% balance transfer by the end of contract - so I'm really pleased about that.

    Going away to start planning what to target for 2019
    Have a great weekend
