Payday Loans
Options
I have had a lot of issues and problems occur in the last couple of years and started on the slippery slope of pay day loans. I originally started out and got 5 and had no problem paying them off etc but then as my partner got ill and had to work less and I had some bereavements I got in a bit of a mess and increased the number of pay day loans I had to almost 15!!! I applied and used them to pay other ones off and pay my rent etc and now I have all these and can not really afford to live properly anymore. I know it is my fault for taking out so many but now I don't know what to do and wondered if anyone can advise me on what I should do and if I can do anything about it? I am now working full time.

If you are now working fulltime then you need to start eating into each PDL.
15 PDL's (I assume with different companies?, although some will be linked) is beyond ridiculous . You need to write, recorded mail, to each company and ask for a pay plan.
some will, some won't. There is no legal obligation for any company to do so.
Head over to the DFW (Debt Free Wannabe) section and post a SoA (Statement of Affairs) sooner rather than later for some advice.0 -
Cant go wrong with what has been posted above ^^, nearly 15 is just incredible but you need to make a start paying them off.0

Was it the 15 pay day loans that gave it away ?0 -
First ever post + 15 payday loans + partner unable to work + 'some' bereavements (!) = troll.0
