    I’ve got £3.5 k in my EF. Anything is better than nothing. Target your OP’s to the loan with the highest APR.

    Yeah i was thinking this to save more money my targeting the higher APR but i like the snowball effect as once i get the lower balance down i can smash all the money for the higher loan then.
