  • I'm trying to fit in some extra shifts to get some more money to pay off my debt faster. I worked 3 shifts this week so I paid £40.92 towards CC1 and £21.23 to CC2 to decrease their totals to: 
    CC1 = £1600/£4600
    CC1 = £3500/£4000

    Paid off CC1 in 2020 🙌
    CC2 £3048.92/£4000
    As of 1/1/2021
