hi
What do you mean by "stop your DMP"?If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing0 -
We currently pay them for a Debt Management Plan, they contact our Debtors and pay so much a month.
From anyones experience are you tied into a contract or can you just take over, ie you do the work and not pay them the fee?
Would this casue any extra fees or am I now stuck into a contract?0 -
Hi
They will have given you terms and conditions. Those will list how much notice they require and what fee they charge. Usually the requirement is one month's notice (makes sense if you think about it).If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing0 -
Was having a look through my docs and couldn't see any thats why i have posted, is that normally the general notice on Debt Management Plans?0

Certainly quite a few of the larger commercial firms have 1months written notice required.
Its on here http://www.hamiltonlockedebtmanagement.co.uk/terms-conditions-of-use/ section 9 (b), it says telephone or writing, personally I would go for in writing and keep a copy of the letter just in case.
Then you can either take over the managment yourself, each creditor will get a little more as you won't be paying a fee, or you could speak to one of the free debt advice charities.A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0
