Nearly almost debt free

£58,009 paid back with help from Stepchange. £175.43 owed. One more payment. I’m so, so happy, grateful and can’t wait to put my DMP DD into an account to save it. Wow, who’d have thought I’d be thinking about savings!!! Stepchange saved my life. I’m no longer scared of white envelopes. Can’t wait to post in the debt free forum.
