    Hi

    I would suggest that you head to the Debt Free Wannabe board on this site, have a read of this thread and then make a post with your Statement Of Affairs. People there will hopefully be able to give you some advice on how to tackle your situation.

    Good luck!
    My posts are my own opinions based on my experiences and info gathered from sites such as this.
    They are not a substitute for professional financial advice - but you knew that already didn't you? ;)

    A few options here;
    1. Continue making repayments of £100 per month until you are debt free.
    2. Negotiate to reduce your monthly repayment with the help of CAB, CCCS and National Debline.
    3. Save up and make an increased offer of full and final settlement.
    You may want to post a statement of affairs on the Debt Free Wannabee board, and you will get a very specific response based on your financial situation.
    Best Regards

    zppp :)
