    Happy New Year everyone.

    Please could I make off 52, 51, 50 and 22. This  is what is in my Christmas Savings account this morning.

    Happy New Year to everyone!

    #3 reporting here  - could I make off 52, 41, 20, 11 & 6 (=£130) for January please?  I will do it for the whole month at the beginning of each month (4 or 5 weeks, depending) if I may - so there's no danger me spending it by mistake!
  • I'll have to aim to make a slow and steady start - there's not much left over until I get a pay rise.  :(

    I'm always in it. It's just the depth that varies.

    Immediate Problem: Overdraft: £752.59 * Paypal £671.07 * Creation £592.74 = £2,016.04
    Phase 1: Vanquis CC £4100.11 * Tesco CC £3996.60 * Capital One CC £3800 = £11,896.71
    Phase 2: Zopa Loan: £12,755
