    And I am off the starting block...

    Paid £60 today, was hoping for £100, but had a think about the debt snowballing theory so £75 went on the outstanding Gas bill, which means that is all paid and one less debt!

    Will be weekly updates from me

    £60.00/£800.00

    Hi everyone!

    Newcomers welcome in the challenge :)
    I've updated the list and made first payment, £50.
  • Over the last few days my minimum payment came out (unexpected as I had more than covered the minimum with overpayments), I sent £10 from mystery shopping, and then I worked out what was left in my current account and what was due out in direct debits before pay day and transferred the extra across to the card. It all added up to £79.11, taking my 100 days total so far to £122.15 / 1793.04

  • Have just joined the Forum in order to give this a bash. Although I'm a week late so it's actually '1 debt vs 93 days'. Want to clear my Barclaycard which has a balance of £874.96
