    Hi Julicorn,

    Thank you for running the challenge, I spotted this a few days ago and have been deliberating. I have Submitted a form £3K per year for EF or New Car or Both. I have updated my calendar with the new event to update you 25th Every 3 months, I already know the first month will be zero, owed to the fact that I am not paid until 31st and all that money is going to pay off the credit card. But I will update again on 25th if you like? Thank you. Also I am starting on Zero. Thank you.

    Hi there, it's absolutely fine for some forms to be 0. Also, you only need to update every 3 months anyway, so I would recommend just submitting the correct balance whenever you send through an update :)

    Hi @julicorn As I stipulated before I am actually starting at minus, however on payday I will pay off credit card debt fully and next time I should hope to report some figures. I had been out of work for four months. Thanks.
