I am planning to call CCCS to arrange an appointment

Hey guys, im planning to call CCCS to set up an appointment to discuss my best option. An DMP seems the most likely option for me at the moment.
Im really nervous about making the call for some reason. Its just hard to come to terms with facing all the problems ive created for myself.
I just wanted to know in this initial call that i will be making, is there any information i will need in hand? Id like to be as prepared as much as possible and i do want to make sure that i don't make a mess of all this.
Im guessing this call will just require for me to give my personal details and make an appointment, but i thought id ask just in case there might be anything extra.
Thanks

Hi katie1979
Have you done the filled in the debt remedy on the cccs website? That way they've got all the info. Don't be nervous about the call, the people i've spoken to at cccs have been completely lovely and just matter of fact/ non- judgemental. You've faced up to having a debt problem and have started sorting it - that for me was really hard. Once you start moving forward you'll feel better!
Good luck for the call!DMP mutual support thread member 371LBM Jan 2010DMP Paddle No 20 -
Katie you will be fine. I have spoken to them several times and not onc edid I feel like the little boy that threw the duster at the teacher

They are an absolute godsend and if creditors employed as many understanding people banks could get a far better image. Don't be afraid in anyway and as Dark says the SoA to hand will help.
Check your debt remedy and see if there is anything they say your spending too much one like harcuts or leisure, odds on that is why you need the phone call.
My first review call was 3 months into my DMP and again helpful to the point they suggested I spent too little lol
