  • Go along to the citizens advice bureau. They will help you. Try not to worry you are among friends here.

    Your local citizens advice bureau should definitely be able to help, as jellycat says. It might also be worth chatting to one of the free debt management charities (payplan, consumer credit counselling service etc) because they have specialist knowledge of dealing with credit card companies and managing budgets etc. Do keep us updated or post a list of income and expenditure if you like, people here are great at spotting savings that you might have missed!

    The main thing is no one will judge you, just give support and wish you luck!
