Finally, on Monday my final default will be satisfied

Hi guys, just thought id share, that on Monday, my final default to AIC/Natwest will be satisfied. They offered me a !!!!!! of £3500 on a £7000 debt, and I managed to haggle them down to £2500! My dad has paid this for me and I will pay him. So, debt wise, I owe £1200 to Vanquis and Cap One that will be cleared in full at the end of March, I owe £700 to Provi, and now £6700 to parents! But it means I can start rebuilding a credit history!

CC limits £26000


Long term CC debt £0

Total low rate loan debt £3000

Almost debt free feeling, priceless.

Ex money nightmare, learnt from my mistakes and never going back there again, in control of my finances for the first time in my adult life and it feels amazing.
