    Hope your mum makes a speedy recovery. For now I’d just do the minimum payment and get Christmas out the way and look at the budget in January.

    2024 Debt
    £1,539.43 - SBCC
    £2,582.50 - MBNA
    £1.661.59 - Tesco
    £2,934.39 - Virgin
    £1,046.75 - Very

    £9,764.66 - Total

    Monthly payments all worked out and a total of £1,081.25 to pay each month to get this all gone by October 2024.

    Plan after that is to make 2 large OP to my mortgage then get a plan in place for 2025 to start regular OP before I need to remortgage in October 2025.

    The savings goals will have to wait till this debt is gone.
