Mortgage express wont extend mortgage

Options
I am with a debt management plan. Mortgage express, ex bradford & bingley have told me that they will start court proceedings unless I pay £6700 from a mortgage which was supposed to finish last year. I still have further advances totalling £40000 which finish in 5 years, I have asked them to extend the length of the £6700 mortgage so I can pay it back. I am currently paying £690 per month to Bradford & Bingley. I cannot get a loan to repay the £6700 as I am on a DMP. I dont know how I am supposed to find that sort of money? I dont want to lose my house and I am paying my mortgage every month. I think that Mortgage express are being unreasonable as last year I was told to carry on paying the amount for the £6700 mortgage, on the yearly statement, which they send out in January?

    What is the property worth? How much do you owe on the DMP?

  • The property is worth £120000 approx. I owe £20000 to my creditors on DMP, pay through payplan each month.

    With that much equity there will be a solution. Whether it will be cheaper in the short/long run may not be the case.

    Good luck
