Comments on the results
You do not have enough monthly income to meet your expenses and your minimum monthly debt repayments. Seek ways to increase your income and/or reduce your expenditure by £485. Your total secured debt is greater than the value of your house. Is this correct? Whatever your results show, it always pays to seek advice or comments from others. Why not post your SOA details on our Debt Management discussion board or on your preferred discussion forum elsewhere. Thankyou for using the SOA Calculator at www.makesenseofcards.com.

    Make sure your car insurance is fully comp. Get breakdown cover £10. Do you pay professional fees or union fees? Do you wear suits to work? Dry cleaning £10.

    yes quite normal, they are so inundated they changed their system, a drop in first to see if they can help there and and then followed by an appointment with one of their trained debt chancellors.
