You have interest rates of zero shown for a lot of your debts, including loans which definitely won't be zero. You'll need to dig out the actual interest rates.0

Have just read your SOA. Is the £1000 a month partners income likely to be regular? You said in your opening post that he has been laid off - so if this is not regular income you need to make that clear to the debt charities to ensure you/they don't base their advice on it, and offer your creditors more than you can afford.
Hope that makes sense.

I spoke to the National Debtline (0808 808 4000 or nationaldebtline.co.uk) which is a charity. The person I spoke to was fantastic and went through everything with me and I wasn't rushed (I was on the phone for 55 mins!). She sent out a booklet and leaflets outlining all the options giving pros & cons for all of them. I felt more hopeful after speaking to someone that knew what they were talking about and certainly didn't judge me.
I hope this helps.0
