Credit Card Repayment Comparison

How much faster you can repay your credit card debt

To do a credit card repayment comparison, take your latest credit card statement and enter in your minimum payment in the calculator below. If you keep paying that same amount rather than the reduced minimum payment next month and beyond you'll have your card cleared faster - much faster - providing you don't keep spending on the card.

 

Fixed Vs. Minimum Payment Calculator

This calculator will show you how much interest you will end up saving if you start making fixed payments on your credit card rather than the prescribed minimum payments.
Enter current balance owed (£):
Enter your credit card's annual interest rate (%):
Enter current minimum payment ( of balance):
Enter a fixed payment amount you could make each month (£):
Do you only ever make the minimum payment?

Using this credit card repayment calculator will show just how long it can take to repay a credit card if only the minimum payment is made each month. However, If you can continue to make the same level of payments from the first month you'll see the length of time it takes to pay it off reduces dramatically.

 

It just goes to show why credit card companies are so keen on keeping customers who only make minimum payments each month and why credit card debt is just so hard to get rid of.

 

If your credit card bills are too high and you cannot maintain them then you must seek professional advice as soon as possible. We can help you cut these debts down to size and give you a guaranteed date when your debts will be cleared by that will almost certainly be earlier than the results in the calculator above might show.
