    Been a rather long time since i posted here, but will add a little entry. Still chipping away. Have £250 to pay off and that is one debt cleared. Yesterday I closed 4 credit cards and cut them up, and closed 3 mail order accounts (all £0 balances) felt very liberating doing so!

    well today I paid off another card and cancelled it. another one cut up!! I'm liking seeing the accounts list get smaller!!! next one to be hit has a larger balance so will be after christmas before the next one is gone. But at least i am closing them, which is a big thing as i have always kept them open before. But open is temptation.
  • Well done on clearing off and cutting thr cards.
