  • 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!
  • 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!

    Are you going to pay off extra on the card even though it's on 0%? My cards are on 0% at the moment and any spare money I have I'm putting into my savings account. Would just be interested to hear another side to it.

  • 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!
