    Can I just clarify, do I complete a form every time I’ve added money to my pot, or do you want it at the end of each month?

    I’ve just transferred £9.05 and didn’t know whether to complete a form or not!

    Thanks xx

    Hello I'm here, did you miss me?!

    I would like the same target as last year please. I would like to smash it again but I know I also have a £3000 debt that needs paying off before I start getting charged interest in November. Yes I could use last years savings but that would be boring :rotfl:

    I also want to find £392.36 to add to 2 of my accounts so that they are both at their full interest making capability.

    Anyhu, if you'll have me i already have £182.25 towards 2018 :D

    Hi everyone, can I join? I've done this on and off for a few years but determined to come back this year and stay on top of my finances. I was always 29 on the previous years so can I have that number again? I'm hoping for £100 but may change that as the year goes on.

    Of course you can have #29,

    Hi RhiBi, Its totally upto you, some people link to send the form as soon as they make the payments so they dont have to check the bank account again at the end of the month to send in monthly amount.

    If you want to send a combined total at the end of the month that is fine.

    I dont mind either way as long as its before the end of the month and not declaring for the previous month in the next month as this causes some admin problems.

    Hope this clears up your worries and it will become easier and clearer as you continue through the months.

    Other retro challengers will be with you to keep you going and follow their lead if you wish
