managed to change my Zopa loan which had repayments over 4 years to Admiral over 12 months so balance is now £14,889.26. First payment isn’t until end of February but will start as I mean to go on and overpay at the end of this month so probably best if I restart as
£0/£14,889.26 as opposed to £16,439.77 😊Aim to pay off £13,000 by December 2024

My debt figures are:
Total Debt: £47,211
Aim to clear in 2024: £12,000I’m paying £1385 approx per month but £385 of this is interest. I’m hoping to switch more of the debt to 0% once I’ve cleared some of the total (I’m not eligible for any cards at the moment 😞).

Can I join please? I have £14095 credit card debt across 4 credit cards. My aim is to pay £7000 of this off this year, with the balance paid off by Christmas 2025. I will update every month on payday, but it won’t be an even amount every month. I am also aiming to only have a balance on two of those cards by the end of this year. Thanks everyone.4
