Do you have property with equity?
Probably best to remake your offer in writing.
Plus point out when doing so this is all you can afford, and that you would not be able to pay any more even if they did take legal action.Free/impartial debt advice: National Debtline | StepChange Debt Charity | Find your local CAB

No I haven't made any payments to them they said they would get back to me with an answer regarding my offer but nothing happened !
In the past no payments were missed as far as I know0
