yeah, wanna reduce the monthly payment tho, nearly £300 is far too much, at least for now, it is going up again in October

Luckily , at the moment , I can afford it ….but like I say , I’d rather buy cheaper food than go without warmth ….I think you feel the cold more as you get older

Yes I will keep an eye on mine and if the credit gets to big I will reduce my monthly payment too …but as you say , it’s going up again in the autumn

how come other european countries don't have nowhere near the same increases as us and have had all the same mitigating factors as us ... i can think of a couple of reasons
