Cccs

Has anyone had dealings with Cccs?

I ask as beginning of this year hubby was laid off and we got a bit behind on some of our bills. Hobby by did not get any benefits because of what we were getting in tax credits. He did get a further job however this is monthly paid and I've been budgeting carefully paying only the mortgage electric etc. we've had to wait till now as we were told we would need proof of income before they could act on our behalf.


Has anyone here used them or know anyone that has?
DMP start date 14/5/12. 1st payment 1/6/2012. TOTAL DEBTS = £24,087.00

    hi. Iam currently with the cccs on a debt management plan and i couldnt be happier with them. they are very knowledgable, understanding and importantly, free. Do you have a specific question or are you just seeking reasurance they are ok? good luck with everything.

    Every person I've heard from who use CCCS highly recommend them, they're usually the first recommended point of contact around this board. :)

    I hope things get better for you and CCCS can help you!

    Good luck x

    I'm just in the process of setting up my DMP with CCCS and they've been excellent. Very helpful and supportive during a traumatic time - I'd recommend them to anyone who needs financial help x

    They are fantastic, I find some months harder than others. But they help you every step of the way. Get your debts paid off, face them and you find all things become easy!
    I have been on a debt management plan with them for just over 3 years, I still have some time to go but its great to see that monthly statement and half of my debt paid! I recommend them . Good luck !
