Repayment Plan

Hi there

Am after a bit of advice if anyone can help please

I got into a bit of bother earlier in the year with payday loans but am now fully on top of them in terms of I have managed to pay all but 1 off but the remaining 1 refuses to set up a payment plan and continues to call me up saying that I will incur hundreds of pounds worth of charges if I let it go to their collection department.

The payday loan is for £400 and I think I could afford to pay them £100 a month for 4 months but this man who calls me says they dont consider repayment plans so in his words I have no option but to pay them off in one payment.

What is the best way to approach this as I am looking to get rid of this payday loan for good and wouldn't ever take out a payday loan again (fingers crossed I never need to)?

    No problem. I know I lurked for a while before plucking up the courage to post a thread and then got quite paranoid when I had no replies.
    But I just bumped it the next day and had a few replies that gave good advice/constructive comments.
    Hang in there and search the forums for similar posts to yours and you may pick up something that may help, and some-one who knows will answer you, cuz I have found that they really are a great bunch of people on here.:T
