Hamilton reese problem

Good Morning All,

I am currently on a debt management plan with the above and I am paying them £250 a month to be paid to my creditors.
On reviewing my payments I have realised that only £205.63 is in fact going to my creditors.
I was told that my first 2 monthly payments paid for the service and Ive been on the plan now for 3 1/2 years.
The plan was originally with William Goldberg and they then merged to become Hamilton Reese.
Any advice would be hugely appreciated.

Many Thanks

Daniel

    Commercial debt management companies usually charge a % managemen fee from your ongoing monthly fees, as well as the first 2-3 months being set up fees. Have you still got your original paperwork? it should mention these.

    How long do you have left based on your current repayments?

    Switching to a free provider - such as CCCS or Payplan will save you these fees and get you debt free sooner. Or some people decide they can manage the self-manged DMP route.
