Did you pick up the phone
Following the decision to self manage my DMP I have communicated with creditors via letter. Some are good. Some are shocking. Some keep calling me NON STOP So I'm curious....who has been in this situation and did you in the end just pick up the calls? Its madness. Along with some accepting lower amounts when using a DMP…

Capquest and Warrant of Control
A bit of back story: I was made redundant a while ago and fell into debt. I stupidly buried my head in the sand when the initial CCJ turned up and now I've recieved a Notice of Issue of Warrant of Control from the county court for a debt of £886.73 that Capquest had purchased from a credit card company. I already have…

Odd CCJ query
Hi there, I hope this is in the correct area of the forum. I've recently found out about a CCJ that was filed against me approximately 3 years ago. Having only previous knowledge that something called a CCJ exists, I didn't really know much about them. After many calls to the court, a solicitor company (who filed for the…

Allied International Credit ?
Missed a phone call earlier, no voice message was left. Googled the number and it came up with a company called AIC, apparently a collections agency that buy old debts from banks. The worrying thing for me is that it appears they don’t contact people without good reason. I’ve only got 2 bank accounts that are both in…

Expiring Graduate Account

Essentially I have about 4k (at the…

Basically, I have been struggling more and more to keep on top of my debt repayments and other bills lately and so I have finally had to face up to the extent of my problem.

Embarrassed & a little scared
Well the title says it all really _pale_ Last time I was on here was nearly 3 years ago. I was debt free and planning a big house move and we were due a pretty big inheritance payment. Suffice to say things didn't go entirely to plan (though we made it in the end!) and now I am, decidedly, NOT debt free. We realised, at…
