Hi HI
If you definitely did not take out this debt then you need to contact them all and report this to the fraud department.
I have helped a number of clients who have had catalogue debts on their credit reports which were not theirs.
We had to send in proof of council tax bills etc and it was all looked into, written off and removed from the credit report.
If it is not yours do not pay it.
If you want any help let me know.0 -

Hope all is well?
Well me and friend have decided to cool things off a bit, we are still going to see each other but he's bought a house so I def think the space will do me good. I've decided its def too soon to move in. So this now means my money has to stretch a bit further (it always does doesnt it?) Anyway my choice ill cope Im still in a better financial state than when I started. It's still important I keep up my dd to repay the savings. I've cancelled sky seeing he will have it at his. So no phone/tv/internet.
Tomorrows hospital appointments and carp.
Soo tired night all x0 -

Thank you xx
Well Im just out sat enjoying a coffee (expensive but I dserve it dont I?)
Decided to take the treatment on offer, bluntness from a consultant hits you in the face and makes you see sense doesnt it? I have to think of my kids and not myself, and thats what I was doing, I was being selfish.
Anyway I asked to start after Im back from my few days away, so at least the kids will have some enjoyment before the hell starts again. So 10 sessions over 20 weeks booked.0
