Hi guys,
I really need your help.......about three weeks ago I lost my job, I have been applying for loads of stuff but at the moment in london it isnt good.
Around an hour ago my mother recieved a call from the debt collection company roxburgh......and thats not all, below I have listed all the payments that need to be paid immediately:
- Roxburgh £423.00 (O2 unpaid phone bills)
- Bristow and Suitor £339.00 (Council Tax)
- Electricty £99.00 (from old flat)
- Gas £60.00 (from old flat)
I know I should have paid them and I know I have been stupid but I really need to pay them.
Without a job and savings I know it is going to be so hard to pay off but I currently have £1157.00 outstanding with HSBC in bank charges.
So what I was wondering is whether I could pay them a visit and take all my documents don there and ask if they can help?
I look forward to your comments.
Many Thanks
Bromarc

I am by no means an expert. But from my own past experience and one of the reasons I am in so much trouble now is by going to the bank for help.
My advice would be to contact Citizens Advice Buraue(sp?) National Debtline, or CCS for help.
Sorry about your job, about to loose mine too.0
