    #4 reporting an additional overpayment of £20.64, totalling £120.64 for July

    Could you please also log £50 for August, julicorn?
    This is a regular OP included in my direct debit on 1st of every month. I will update with any additional OPs towards the end of the month.

    Thanks julicorn :T
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end

    #101 - A further payment of £300 for July making £500 for the month in total.

    Always exciting to hit the £500 with my provider since they automatically reduce the term at this point and it's nice to see the final payment date creep closer.
