    #112 checking in. Forgot to post last month but in total £600 over to the card which will be paid off next month and then its on to the dreaded overdraft. So far that's £2100 of the total £3700 might just miss the target of Xmas but hoping bonus in October can be spent on clearing some more debt with just a little set aside for Christmas.

    #204 reporting back!

    Payment of £560 made just after payday (which was late, frustratingly).

    Now paid £660/£2,802

    After a PPI cheque, I've the opportunity to pay the remainder off in one go at the end of this month, but this would be at the expense of much of my savings. The debt is interest-free over the next 20 or so months, BUT my income is uncertain, BUT I'm hoping to move house next year and wanted the savings for moving, BUT...argh. Wrecking my own head here...

    Good luck everyone!

    I wrecked my head doing the same thing although my debt was costing me 15 quid a month or so. I think if there is a real possibility of moving keep it in savings? (have you opened a Help to buy? -if you are eligible ? ) but I understand the feeling of wanting rid of it. Use the move as an incentive to pay it off even more?

    Nevertheless she persisted.
