    No. 23. Paid off £858 on the Barclaycard account.  The the balance is now cleared - hurrah! The next challenge is a loan that's to be cleared once I've found out the full balance.  :)

    Well done DF2019!

    I have had a refund which has cancelled out some of my big annual spends this month, meaning I have some money to throw at the debt. I've paid £180.25 leaving me at £1788.79 / £1793.04. Almost there. Once the refund has definitely come through and my recent payments have settled, I will pay off the remaining £4ish and close the account - yey! Once I've done that I'll start on the next debt in my snowball - an approx. £2300 credit card
