hi I am new here and in need of a little help I looked at other sites and found a printable budget sheet etc to send of to creditors they are now coming back with it things like the car tax ,mot per month is to expensive and the tv ,computer , daughters dance are luxurys so the amont is not usable
I did go to a fee paying debt company but the were charging way over the top I thought I could do better myself but it seems I have shot myself in the foot by sending out this budget sheet I am felling really low today and just need help

welcome mrsmess,
have a look at the yellow links at the top of page.
martin has a budget planner on this site why not use that?
IT IS FREE.
There you go you have saved money on something already.
Keep coming back to this site there are lots of people here that will gladly help.
try and work out your budget and then put it on the site here and well have a look at it and help you that way.
it seems to work well for lots of others.
good luck.0 -

By contacting CCCS you are still doing it yourself, the BIG difference is you are getting support and professional advice from people who deal with this every day!
You will be making informed decisions and taking control.
Don't see taking professional advice as any kind of failure or cop out!
