HFC Attachment of earnings advise

Hi All,

I have got myself into a bit of trouble with these guys. In October they issued a CCJ for a loan of £480 which then ended up £627 with charges. I accepted and started paying £50 per month but missed 2 payments for November and December but restarted in January at the same amount. Restons went ahead and asked for attachement of earnings with another £100 added to the claim.
Is there anything i can do?
I completed the form and offered £100 per month which in hindsight is too much to what i can afford.
I offerd this so that a deferred order could be received as an attachment would put my employment in jeopardy.
A deferred order has now been issued and i have until the 20th to challenge this.
Can i reduce my payment offer and challenge Restons charges at this late stage?

    Hi and welcome

    (sorry you have had no answers previously)

    Bumping this back to page 1 for more people to see - if still no one can offer advice you might want to contact nationaldebtline (email or phone) for some advice from them.
