    Debt free and saving like crazy
  • Hi everyone

    Not checked in for ages sorry. Have been making small payments but I had one CC that I was paying interest on so I've done a balance transfer and my total debt is corrected in my signature along with the amount so far.
    Muppets - sorry if my %age now has to be altered :( I still aim to pay off £4500 by xmas.
    My total amount paid so far is below:

    #96 £1347.05/£9597.05

    Well done to everyone, keep going we can do it :)

  • As one of my credit cards is now cleared, I've bumped up the DD on the other one, and this month they overlapped, sending me storming ahead :T

    June's payments all made.

    #195 Paid 349.39

    So now at 830.19 / 22750.39

    Only starting out and a long way to go, but writing it down and seeing the percentage paid is a real incentive to pay as much as possible to clear it as soon as possible. Keep going everyone! x

    #78 checking in with some great news.

    I have received a tax rebate as I had two jobs and paid too much tax.

    Sent £500 to my debt. Have cleared one card and I now just have one more left. This nice little surprise have definitely moving my debt free date forward but 2 months.

    Also I have increased my hours in my new job to full time instead of part time so will see some extra pennies which I can throw at this last card as be debt free after 10 years!
    :)

    Keep going everyone.

    So new total is £2380/3880

    Only £1500 left to go...
