    Wonga went bust, there's no chance of anyone getting much back unless they're a preferred creditor. Have you heard from the administrators that you are due to get something back?

    a significant number of people take on debt in the UK at Christmas to keep up with the Jones'. might be the case here?

    I was but I am now admitting to self that I have a gambling problem. Idont need censure. I am closing bingo sites, made a list of creditors ie bank account barclaycard and mbna and allocating extra to repayments. Using bus more as free (pensioner) shopping in Aldi! Managed to cut electric gas and water bills by £29 per month and can go towards debts.I feel like sh..t having gone back into debt but at least now trying to get out of it slowly. Have to keep Barclaycard payments up as have been threatened with permanent closure of account. I rent so there is no equity to draw down.
    Yesterday made soup for lunch and remainder in freezer using up leftover veg and pots.More filling and cheaper than tinned soup. Going to have veggie mince spag bol cooking time tomorrow again saving costs an bettter flavour.

    Where did the inf come from My last email from administrator was months ago and mentioned "end of Jan ". He/she quoted £7000 as due but would only be getting small percentage. Web suggested 5 or upto 10 %.

    Website says "at end of" not "by end of" so will have a couple of weeks wait still to go.

    I have just received and email today confirming that there will be another email at the end of the month confirming how much the payment will be.

    It doesn't actually say that the payment will be made in January though.
