How long?

Hi.

I am new to this havingonly had my LBM last week and facing up to the fact £50k of unsecured debt will never go away on it's own!

I have started on setting up a dmp via the national debt line and have written to all my creditors with a £10 token payment.

How long does it normally take from returning the forms and sending the letters for things to start happening?

Thanks

Ed
