I want to break free

I am so sick of being in debt, about £10,000 approx, I am just adding it up now. Its driving me mad. I seem to be dealing with people who have no idea of real life. However my goal is to be significantly in less debt by christmas than I am now. Having read the advice above all I can do is ask every one for support on the way and lets see me get this done.

Cheers:beer:

    Bummer of a situation. I had a long standing gas leak that I didn't know about. Basically my gas fire was leaking, and although I could occassionally smell gas it was only ever a small whiff now and again. So I got my metre changed to a card one last week and they found the leak, and said it had been there for ages. Apparantly I can't get money back off the supplier (who I am currently paying off my HUGE gas bill at £1 a month) because the leak was after the metre. My landlord is not interested. I am stuck paying for gas I havent used.
