DFW 204 - Started off £53,670 in debt LBM 2006
I will be in credit one day - one payment at a time0 -
Today I will:
- List more dvds/books & cds on Amazon
- Call Barclaycard & find out My cash balance total. Checked my Barclaycard statement today and showed I pay £12.93 every month interest for my cash balance, but doesn't say how much cash balance I have. Didn't think I had any as never got cash out using the card. On top of cash balance have to pay interest for standard balance, so that another £5 every month interest.
- Do daily clicks
- Cancel credit report I get every month - £5.99 saved every month.
