Minimal but ongoing debt

I currently owe around £2000 to creditors:

Bank of Scotland Overdraft x 2
Egg Credit Card x 1
O2 Mobile Contract x 1
T Mobile Contract x 1

In addition, I owe around another £1500 to parents.

This has been ongoing for around 3-4 years as I have not faced up to the problem, which I know could be cleared very easily.

I had been paying using a debt company but cancelled the payments as I felt they were charging too much and couldn't provide an up-to-date balance on request.

This was at the start of this year and I have not started repayments to my creditors in about 8 months or so.

I am looking for advice on how to get my debt problem back under control and make an effort to clear this.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
