Hello!!
I would like to join please. This is my favourite challenge and has kept me massively motivated in the past. I would like to tackle my smallest debt which is £1443.11 so my 1% is £14.43. I need to ring them tomorrow to sort out my log in details as I will pay each 1% off the card as I go. It is on 0% and not going to count the DD payments towards my % challenge for now. Won't officially start till the login is sorted. Debt is on 0% for over a year.
So excited!0 -
Kicking off with 1% paid! Most of my extra bits and pieces comes through surveys, market research and the like. As my 1% is only £14 I will hopefully be posting regularly. Tackling the next credit card after this one will be much harder!0

I pay it straight off the card. I just want to see my totals going down! I use an app that has all my debts listed and tells me my debt free date. My aim is to get that date to move sooner!0
