    Well done. It is a big weight off your shoulders to know that you are dealing with the problem and not hiding from it isn't it?. After 6 years with CCCS I am looking at just £250.00 of debt. They have been so great. Before I went to them I couldn't answer the door, the phone and wouldn't open any mail. I felt sick and anxious all the time and contacting them was the smartest move I ever made. All the best to you and your wife.:j
  • Congratulations. May the road to debt freedom be a smooth one. I am with a "private" company and cannot fault the service I am getting, and echo the sentiments above.
  • brilliant news!:beer: happy anniversary too!:):):) hope your able to have a treat for the double celebrations! isn't it good to be smiling again? x
  • Well done, take some time out to relax and unwind. :)
