Hi Julicorn. I would love to join this year (first time) with an overpayment/savings target of £15,000. Happy with any number. Thank you!1

@julicorn can i be a massive PITA and change my target please?Tiredbutdetermined said:Could I join for the first time please?
Can I go for a target of £15,000 please?
I had been thinking that it would be too fiddly to separate out my payment and overpayment as my direct debit is set to overpay. However, I think it is worth me consciously unpicking each month so I feel a bit more accountable.#
Would it be possible to reduce my target to £3000 so it is overpayments only please?
I am number 8
