    Yes Badger555, it is too good to be true. Avoid them like the plague.

    Do as the others have suggested, contact StepChange, PayPlan, CAB or National Debtline and do so ASAP.
    You may question anything I say. Just be polite, otherwise you go straight on to my Ignore List, which funds a good old fashioned knees-up every Xmas. Cheers;)

    Ok thanks for the replys

    I spoke to them again today and they say that i would pay £140 per month for 6 years which by my reckoning is £10000,sounds great but too good to be true

    Seriously. Stop speaking to them!

    How can they make these promises without having spoken to your creditors first? All it takes is for one of them to insist on the full amount and you'll see your plan being extended...

    Avoid like the plague. There is no quick way out of debt and these scumbag companies feed on the vulnerable by trying to suggest that there is.

    You seem strangely determined to let yourself get ripped off by these sharks.

    Badger how many more times can people tell you you are making the biggest mistake of your life if you go with these vultures.

    Do what you want but when things go ***** don't forget you were warned what a mistake you were making.

    There has been a few of these companies collect the money, not pay any creditors & then go into administration, leaving you well out of pocket.

    Some of the spelling on their site would send me in the opposite direction.
