Number 25 here. I'm now on 10%!! Thanks to Quidco and me still having my job in these uncertain times.
Next month my debt should hopefully drop below 10k for the first time in years! My savings are also almost 2k! All my debt is on 0%.2 -
I have my argos card and Halifax card both charging interest at the moment but concentrating on argos first. Balance is just over £400 and using my payments I get for paying direct debits through my account which are working out at about £6 a month so paying that on top of payments.Did owe £9,951.96
Now helping hubby pay off loan. Finally paid off :j

Payday and overtime means that I could pay my normal 250, plus an additional 250 on top.
The rest of the month will be lean as I had to pay my partner back for some bits, pay for vet bits, I need to order my passport and I really need a car service if I can get one. So may need to dip into this, but for now:
2.5k / 6k = 41%
Next month will be even leaner as I will not be getting any overtime. So I doubt I'll save any money then!

It's been pretty much confirmed that we will not be back at work by next payday, and that we will be paid part salary. So I have moved my months petrol money over.
€200 = 2.7/6k = 45%
