    £475 paid off but balance still at £2126.92 😔
    Dont be disappointed! You're facing your debts and that's all that matters! You'll get there in the end. Keep positive! 
    Agreed, anything paid off is better than nothing, and much of this is about attitude. By even making the choice to pay off your debt you are half way there. And baby steps can lead to a big journey.
