Hi

How do you earn the extra money to pay off your debts, I have back read this thread, but other than ebay and 'taxi' car I think Insurance payout? Could be wrong there:(, how do you earn the extra money so quickly?

I am reluctant to use ebay, as I was a victim of fraud activity using my old account, where they tried to buy loads of stuff in my name, took me months to prove, it was not me! Ended with me closing the account for good!

Any advice welcome.

Thanks LUCY7509

:wave: I'm very sorry to hear of your problems at eBay Lucy. It sounds like a nightmare. :eek:

Books, DVDs & CDs etc can be sold on Amazon and Play. My total is also boosted by second jobs, quidco, mystery shopping, babysitting etc as well as eBay.

Hi

Just got paid and have made online payment for £1400 to my Lloyds CC. I am now reluctant to go into the branch these days because they always try to persuade me to sign up for a loan.
Also paid £100 towards my overdraft and £30.00 to other cc payment.

Well done everyone.

A total of about £250 paid off today - bringing my "total total" down to below £50k which is half way! As far as this challenge goes, I have now paid off £14218 this year

Lucy7509, we both have second jobs and also rent out our spare room to get the extra cash in. Have a look at the £10 a day challenges on here, and you will get loads of ideas for making extra money - also there is a board called "up your income" which you might find useful.

Wow Earthstrong, you've paid off so much, well done. :T

I'm now at the 3/5 mark with more to come this next week, trying to get through to pay off an account at the moment but they're too busy, call back later. Horrible for all of the people having to deal with a dca but I'm :rotfl: that these are the same people who try to make you feel like a scutter for being the only person who has ever been unable to pay off a debt, ever.

Hi everyone.

Sorry I haven't posted for a while - I've been on holiday (from work, but still at home unfortunately). The grand scheme to spend the summer earning extra money didn't quite work out - I just lazed about mostly and couldn't seem to get into gear to do anything .

Anyway, the lazing stops now - gotta lotta work to do before Xmas!

Well done everybody - there are some amazing totals.
