Pay day has arrived and I have paid £150 off my overdraft which means there's £150 left!
I was planning on paying £100 off but fortunately I have 3 babysitting jobs coming up this week.
One more payment left on the 25th November and my £1000 overdraft will be a thing of the past!Store card £140 £117 - Store card £150 - Overdraft £200 - PayPal £364 - Loan 1 £5052 - Loan 2 £1733 - Credit card £2890 - Car hire purchase £3200 - Savings £0.0 -

Fantastic news and just in time! I think overdrafts are going to be expensive going forward so you've done the best thing. Plus your money is all yours to pay off as you wish. Great work Pidge xxxLoan 1 £5200/£8000

It will be two years in February since I started my diary. I had about £15,000 worth of debt and I was in a really bad way.
Yesterday I paid off one of my overdrafts! It feels amazing! I paid off £1000 in a year.
I also had £54 on a store card which I paid off today.
Next I will tackle my other overdraft which is £750. I hope to pay that off in April 2020.
My loan ends in August 2020.
I need to get my credit card onto another 0% balance transfer.
Selling things left, right and centre! I have some babysitting jobs booked in for December.
Must be very frugal. I just want this debt gone and I am going to throw everything I can at it and get this job done!Store card £140 £117 - Store card £150 - Overdraft £200 - PayPal £364 - Loan 1 £5052 - Loan 2 £1733 - Credit card £2890 - Car hire purchase £3200 - Savings £0.0 -

Early indications show that 2020 is going to be your year0
