  • Is there any way you could remortgage your house to pay all the unsecured debts???
    I startd my diary yesterday and after reading yours I have realised how fortunate I am to have extra income to eventually pay the debt. My problem is I am keeping mine to myself as I would end up single if my OH found out and anyway its my own stupid mess to sort out:eek:
    What a out selling stuff on ebay etc???

    I agree about contacting the companies and sending them your soa.
    As i understand it they have to accept what you offer even if its £1 a month.

    Godd luck and I hope you find a solution :) x

    Hi Julie,

    I've been trying to find your thread for ages, but I couldn't remember which numbers came after your name! Finally remembered that I'd linked to it on Alex's thread and was able to find you again :)

    I really hope you and the boys are ok, and you've just gone quiet because everything's ticking along as normal...
