    My March update is that I haven't paid off the final £1250 of my last credit card as I'd planned. I paid £50, which covered over the minimum payment, but I have lent £400 to DD and another £450 to DH - all for good causes I have to say.

    So the plan is to pay the final £1200 off the card before the middle of April, which is when the 0% deal ends.

    Then all I have left is my student loan and I'll be able to pay that off once my savings account matures in April/May and when HMRC have told them how much my salary deductions/interest is.

    Still on track to be debt-free in April I hope (although I'm not sure how long it takes the HMRC to communicate with the SLC).
