  • Hi I'd like to join... I have credit card debt of £5227.30
  • Hi, please include me in this challenge:

    Debt is: £4718.00 / £31,910.00

    Thanks :)
  • I want to pay off approximately £9,000 by Christmas.
  • No 34 checking in with no updates I'm afraid! I'm just crossing off the days until pay day. Budget so tight and lean this month there's nothing extra to use. Still standing at £400 / £7500 paid off

    Is anyone else frustrated at slow progress?

    It used to bug me loads. Last year I realised I have to live as well and had overstretched myself paying too much off.


    Keep going tortoise will win in the end.

    Thank you for my Number.

    Can I increase my amount slightly to £2,635.46, as I have this months interest to pay.

    Hoping to pay something off tomorrow when I get paid my work expenses.

    Pop me down for this challenge please.

    Having a baby coupled with no savings and a Mrs on maternity pay has taken it's toll on the old personal debt. She's now back at work full time and we're going to tackle it HARD!

    £15,985 at the start of the year.

    Now sat at £14,745
