Speak to your agent.
I had a Provident loan and just couldn't keep up with it when my circumstances changed. When I spoke to my agent she was really helpful and helped me arrange to make lower payments. It just meant I was paying it off for longer.
Don't worry, in my experience Provident people are very nice, it's just their interest rates that suck. :rotfl:;)0 -
Thanks my agent is really nice But I'm afraid just in case they take me to court as when she has issued loans in the past she has read something out which means court action will be taken if not paid0

please speak to one of the debt charities about your situation http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/loans/debt-help-plan?utm_source=forum&utm_medium=clicks&utm_campaign=resourcebar#help
If this went to court, the court would order you to pay what you could afford, which may well be less than at the moment and the provi would have to accept it.
They would get less interest than at the moment, so it would not actually be in their favour.If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing0 -
