Hiya no 72 reporting in to say I made an overpayment of £2500 for April. This was money I was putting away since Christmas in another account until I wanted to visit the branch. Maybe I should change my goal to £3500 and see if I can achieve this for the rest of the year. Thanks1

Thank you for your update! I assume that takes your total for May to £64.82? Let me know if that's right - for future updates, it's super helpful if you can give a monthly total as well, it avoids me misunderstandingpowerspowers said:#76 with a second overpayment for May of £47.66
thanks Julicorn 🤩 1
