cccs

Hello everyone

I have finally canceled my Debt Plan with Churchwood and couldnt belive I was paying £38 a month to them. When I joined them the fee was £25.

Anyways im in the process of getting all my stuff sent of to cccs so dont think my first payment will be till 1st March , so I was wondering ?

I have 10 Creditors and do I just sent a cheque off for the same payment that churchwood would send them for Febuary payment as cccs is not starting till 1st March

    Hi K,

    I would definitely send the agreed payments to the creditors yourself for February, as some of them can get nasty when payments are missed.

    Good luck

    Sounds sensible but I would check with CCCS first to see what they recommend

    cccs said to send token payments, does that mean the normal monthly payments ?

    Hi K,

    Yes, I would send exactly the same payments the companies were receiving from churchwood, but it would do no harm to confirm this with the cccs.
