Thanks Bob...I will have £8300 but my finance is just over £9000...but at least I can pay most of it.The next payment is due the 31st as well.Think hes applied for the loss of earnings and other stuff while he's awaiting DHs medical...they'll want to settle quick as the hire car is £95 plus vat a day.

Morning all..hope you are all well.
It's our day off today and I've quite a bit to do today
strip our bed,wash and dry and re make the bed...DONE IN DRYER NOW
phone solicitors and salvage to check when I'm getting the £1500 cheque from the salvage...DONE AS £6800 CHEQUE ARRIVED AND THEY ARE GOING TO SEND THE SALVAGE CHEQUE ON AS SOON AS IT ARRIVES
go to insurance Broker and pick up insurance certificate for brand new car...DONE
nip to vauxhall to let them have it so they can tax the new car...DONE
Go to Preston for 1pm as there is a fault on the hire car(minor) and that is the nearest Skoda garage(it's easier for me to do that rather than the hire firm to take it away and take two days to bring it back)...DONE
check online banking.......DONE
check for surveys etc...NOW DONE
bit of shopping...DONE
go to bank...DONE
That's about it for now....Have a good day xx

looks like you needed all those boring days to bank up your energy for today taxi, its typical isnt it that on your day off your going to be busier than if you were working!
you have a gooden too xx

Thanks Bubbles ..you too xxx.I am often quite busy on day off as I save all my jobs until then.I usually bank daily at the moment(which is time consuming) as I'm trying to keep out of the O/D as the O/D interest is calculated daily.Just waiting for post and DH to get up before we go it.

Well Taxi sounds like a full on day for you, hope it all goes well and as smoothly as possible.....

Thanks CAFCGirl and welcome back.Just had the post and the £6800 cheque has come today so will bank that today.Had to phone the solicitor to confirm arrival and he mentioned the salvage one £1500 which stupidly is getting sent to him then to me!!!!..so guess that will be a few days away...ahh well.

A ll jobs complete and now having a brew.Tea is on cooking and have also phoned GMAC about settling the payment and they said they may write some of the debt off but I can't really see them doing that though.
Just going to chill now as have done enough.

Fingers crossed for some sort of reduction from GMAC - anything will be better than nothing!

peb

If thats what you manage on a day off I'll stay away from Blackpool when you are working!

Good to get so much done though.

Hope OH isn't trying to do too much

Thanks you 2..not seen you around for ages Peb..hope everything is well for you xx...Hypno the girl on the phone mentioned it to me...I was checking that I could pay off in the 3 sectione ie £6800 then £1500 and then the other £887.51 that I would owe them but by the time I pay the other two lots £8300 the next car payment would come out so I would have paid £543.90 anyway off it leaving a balance of £343.61 for me to find!!!!!
But they wanted me to pay my part £887.51 and then refund the £543.90..I don't see the point in that though...it's easier for me to find the £343.61(not very easy but easier)...then she said they may be able to knock some off but I didn't understand how or why...so we'll see.I don't want anything unsettled on my credit report!!!!! as I have a excellent credit rating so if that's the case I will find the money from somewhere and await the cheque back.
