    Out of all of them 3 have defaulted and equally 3 of them are with DCA's. I am paying each of them £5 a month and have been doing for around 15 months with cccs on a dmp.

    I have no assets, live with parents...

    What do you think, based on above?
  • No wonder the world economy is in the state it is if you can get away with taking out so much debt and offering to pay back so little, shocking.

    I owe half what you do, live at home and paying it all back and working part time and going to college at 25
    Total CC Debt: £1750
    Overdraft £1300
    Car Loan £1750

    Savings £0
    Redundancy OCT £2000
    Wage this month £540

    Cheets99, I think you protest too much, neither you nor I know why “Snowball1” is in this financial situation, which brought on the need to write to the creditors with an “offer”, it surely is better to make an Offer than to burry ones head in the sand and not even try. This site is not here to “judge” others but is here to give mutually help and support when we can, Whilst I fully applaud your repayment plan, it is not always possible for the same “plan” to work in every case.. So let’s not castigate people for what they are trying to do, let’s get together and support each other. (End of sermon)
    :beer: Keep your Chin up.. it can only get better :beer:
    :confused: I'm one of those people who was born to have money, :confused:
    :confused: but I just don't have any!:confused:
