    Hi and welcome

    What are your debts? are they priority debts (like rent, mortgage, utilities) or unsecured debts (credit cards, loans etc).

    How long since you last paid towards them?

    What is the current status? are you being chased by the creditors/debt collectors by letter?

    Have you spoken to any of the debt advice charities?

    Are you earning? how much could you afford towards your debts a month?
