Hi Guys, I’m new to the forum and just after a bit of debt advice So recently I woke up and realised I’m 43 next month I have £22k of debt (2 loans, 4 credit cards(1 is only £200) and Klarna £299) and zero savings 1 of my loans has only £606 on it left and I plan on paying it off next week, this will free up £202 a month…

I would stick with saving into the pension. Don't cancel it as you'll want to be able to live when you retire. You can afford to reduce your debt whilst still paying in.
