To ask how much your monthly direct debits come to?

[Shallwehibernate]

I just want to know if ours are within the normal range.

Ours come to £1750. That includes mortgage, all bills, kids clubs.

Does not include shopping, petrol and anything else.

Ours come to £2462.68. Yes I am a religious budgeter, ha.

To add. I get that there'll be a bit variation and different incomes/lifestyles etc.

We never seem to have any spare money left over and I'm trying to weigh up if we are paying out a lot or are simply not budgeting our food and disposable income well.

£2,400 including mortgage and bills.

Kids activities aren't included as I don't pay for any of them monthly, usually termly.

£2200. This is everything that is a regular cost, mortgage , bills, direct debits, NMC, Brownies, swimming etc. It also includes money to put away for yearly costs such as Prime, car tax and car insurance. It doesn’t include savings, food shopping, clothing or holidays.

8,000,000,085.59p

£600, usually. To get a better idea for your situation /salary it might be worth starting a more specific thread about where you could cut back...

£739 for direct debits including mortgage. Two adults one teen

£146. Only things I have in DD are council tax water and Internet

£1500 but I pay car and home insurance up front and I pay for one kids activity 3 times a year so with these you could add on another £175. Includes all bills, mortgage, loan payments and wraparound at school.

£2600 ish Inc mortgage

£2500 incl mortgage and all DDs

50% of what I earn is gone by DD the day after pay day.

I've absolutely no idea. This is the kind of stuff I should probably know but just... don't. It's less than my monthly salary, if that helps.

Home insurance £22
Gas & electric £130
Council tax £166
Mobile phone sim contracts x 3 £25
Water £63
Car costs x 2: £120 (not petrol)
Broadband £27
TV licence £15
Mortgage £347.17
pet insurance £12
Denplan £57

Total under £1000 pcm

(sorry, underestimated some things so posting again..)

£2900, mostly mortgage

About £920 including rent.

Income is relevant to this post.

But ours is £2,300. As @Haruka says 50% is straight gone by dd.

£480 , luckily mortgage free , pay my car insurance & tax upfront for the year so that's not included either .
Covers council tax , gas, electric, pet insurance, sky tv , bupa healthcare

£978.

Just direct debits though!

Pension and savings not included

£4816

Just did a budget today, need to save and be more mindful of spending too much.

50% of total take home pay goes on all direct debits, fuel and groceries.

£2,900 excl private school (for 1 DC @ £16k pa)
Income is triple that though, it's all relative.

£1459 - higher than usual atm because energy bills are on a variable pay as you go smart meter tariff type thing.
No mortgage but this does include dd’s uni rent.

Literally means nothing without salary etc to compare to. Our mortgage is more than your total!
