  • Congrats Rochdale_Guy,

    Not only a thoroughly absorbing read, but it's really great to see someone benefitting from the whole ethos behind why Martin set the site up. Especially given a lot of the bickering and site abuse we have experienced recently.

    Great work!

    You owe almost ten times as much but the same principles apply - the speed of clearing it will depend on your disposable income and how much interest is charged. Have you read the "credit card shuffle" article?
