    Hi, nearly the end of June so I don't think there'll be any more sneaky little overpayments left this month!
    Total for June = £90
    Total YTD = £1,350

    Thanks @julicorn

    Hi there! When you have a moment, could you check the overpayments I've logged for you? I think I'm missing £100 somewhere. Thank you!

    Number 69, I’ve managed an op of £70 in June.  So many expenses at the moment so things a little tight but hoping to keep chipping away a bit at a time.

    Morning all,
    No 23. reporting in. I think I am a bit behind with my updates so here are the last few months.
    May - £112
    June - £112
    July - £3112
    I think that makes my total £5940
    Thanks for all your work @julicorn
