I did it (Head out of sand)

Well I phoned CCCS and they are going to help me sort things
and get on the road to where ever....
Ive got to get a credit file done as someone else said,
as I dont know who I owe and what...

And the 2 debts I know of that have been sent to me
where I live now they told me to write to them, tell them CCCS
are helping me and send token cheque of £1.00

Which I just did, so feeling a little better...
I know ive got a long way to go, im just going to get my credit file
from one of the companys someone mentioned.
Better make sure Ive got enough in my account to pay for it :rolleyes:

Im just dreading going through this on my own and not having anyone to talk to, support and just me cry on them, thats the hard part!!

    Well done Neff, thats the start now to sorting your finances out. The CCCS are excellent at helping get things sorted, they will also be able to help you move on once they, and you have got things in order.

    You will always be able to post questions here or just vent off if you need to.
    With all the people that help on this forum, there will be someone who has gone through the same thing, or know someone who has so you will get help.

    Good luck, and as you said... head out of the sand now, so onwards and upwards!! :D

  • Well done from me too. It's always better when ones head is out of sand;)
    Better to be poor than a slave to wealth

  • Awww well done for making the first step towards the rest of your life!!

    I stuck my head in the sand for far too long & after months of deliberation I finally took the plunge last week.
    As of 11.05am, thursday 6th August... I am officially BR

    Ive still got my lengthy OR interview to go through & I am hoping for a face to face, rather than over the phone.. Ive got nothing to hide, so would rather it was done f2f

    It has only just started to sink in that I have got a second crack at my life & my online business is starting to pick up too, so for the first time in a VERY VERY long time... I feel good about life

    Ask away if there are any questions you may have.. I found this board & all the lovely people on it an absolute god send

    xx
