Credit card reducing repayments?

Join Posts


This is copied and pasted from another board, nobody answered though so maybe I was in the wrong place!


Hi everyone,
Two months ago we contacted every card we owe and asked for reduced payments due to temporary financial problems.They all agreed and were very helpful.
Just yesterday we discovered a drop in our child tax credits (overpayments apparently....how I don't understand,every figure given was to the penny).
What I would like to ask is can we go back to the credit cards and ask for them to be reduced again as we're back to living on a very very tight budget with three kids?It's only until the middle of next year when they will all be paid off in full.

Thanks in advance :o

    Yes you can. fingers crossed they will agree.

    You may also like to contact CCCS or one of the other free debt charities for some advice.

    Also you may want to post your SOA here to see if any of us can help you reduce things further.
