Would I be able to join? I've had a bit of a laissez faire attitude with the credit card and have let it get up to £2,000. £700 currently going through a chargeback process which if successful will reduce by a nice chunk, but nevertheless I need to get it ALL cleared as there's no need for it to be there!
My signature says I have £2,000 in an emergency fund, I can't touch that as it's to go towards some tuition costs in September and is locked in an account until then, so we're starting from scratch!
