  • Morning,

    Did some money shuffling and paid off the £250 off the MBNA. I won't be able to make any more payments until the end of the month now :(

    Once I build up the pots again, the Cap One card is next on the firing line.

    Another £551.05 bites the dust.

    #134 - £1,833.49 / £15,985.00

    No more payments until payday now :(, although I'll always try to chip away at it by the odd £ here and there, I think it's the small regular payments that also keep you motivated.

    Best of luck all.

    Hi All,

    I'm new here and hope I'm not too late to join in. I have a card which I wish to pay off by early next year, as that is when its 0% period ends- however, I've always had a personal target to get it gone by the end of the year, so I'd like to join in if I'm not too late :o

    If that is OK with everyone, I'd like to start with todays balance please :D

    £0 / £2300

    many thanks in advance :)

  • #110 paid off the debt!!!
    7293 final settlement.

    Thanks to a combination of two lots of contract work for a local authority finally being paid. I always knew they would eventually pay but it took a long time and I kept doing work for them (LA I figured they would pay at some point, probably a bit naïve) so when it came in finally, it came in as a lump sum. I also needled at my other half to let me use our savings to clear the debt. It's gone and even though we have virtually no savings I feel so much better for seeing it go.
    Thank you everyone on these boards for helping me have a lightbulb moment and not drift aimlessly onwards.

    Good luck everyone
