I'd just like to advise people to be cautious in relation to the above post from the poster knightsbridge as it may or may not be genuine (as a reader you have no way of proving either) but I would suggest people get independent advice from one of the debt charities that Martin himself recommends such as National Debtline, CCCS or your local CAB among others.

I also want to warn anybody who is dealing with Knightsbridge financial consultants. They are extremely a fraudulent company. They are a bunch of cheaters, liars and pure fraud. One of their managers rang me and persistently persuaded me to join thier financial management plan. I was not happy but he somehow managed to convince me to reply to his email. Due to which they managed to fradulently take money out of my bank account.
When I contacted them and registered my concern. They kept saying that it was done by accident and they would refund the money back in two weeks and that I was required to write them a letter.
After writing the letter after they advised me that it would take another two weeks for the refund to come. Unfortunately that day hasn't come. It is more than a month and whenever, I try to contact them they put the phone down on me. I have now reported to the financial ombudsman . I am also very concerned that these people have all my account details and may again in future attempt to take money out . So, I am also in the process of closing my bank account.
I would request and advise everybody to be very vigilant and careful dealing with these bunch of technical financial cheaters. Never do any sort of commitment with them or never provide them with your bank details and never sign or email anything to them.0
