Look at up yor income., can you do a car boot, put stuff on amazon or e-bay?
Also put yup your statement of Affairs.
head over to the Money Saving Old Stlye forum and do a store cupboard challenge (list what you have in the freezer and store cupboard and stop buying food for a while).If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing0 -

Thank you everyone else for your comments.
I have been through all of my statements and can't find any areas where i can save money (apart from maybe sky or BT).
I do not spend any money on my home businesses, because i know i can't afford it.
I guess i need to visit the up your income section
Anyone any ideas??
Yes! I do have some ideas - I posted them! You looking through your statements on your own isn't the same as putting up a Statement of Affairs on here. Please do it, and *let* us help you.2023: the year I get to buy a car0 -
It's true-we often spend money on mad stuff without 'seeing' where it's going, so having someone else look over it will be really helpful. I can't remember who it was, but someone on these boards used to spend something like £70 a week on chicken breasts for their dog, while they were struggling to pay their bills. I don't expect you are doing this, but I am sure there will be easy saving that can be made from your SOA too-I look forward to seeing it posted0

Thank you for all of your help and advice.
I contacted payplan yesterday and went through everything with them over the phone. I am waiting to hear back from them early next week.
I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders.
I will post with the advice they have given me
Thanks

Well done! I was worried you were more convinced borrowing was the answer!
Very responsible of you and if you need any further support just shout!0
