I posted in Sep 2009 regarding my debt of £35k and how I didn't know how to tell my wife. I set up a DMP which should have lasted about 17 years.
As of this morning, I have just paid my last offer of settlement (have saved a total of £12k by making offers).
It may be hard, but there is light at the end of the tunnel - you just have to keep moving towards it no matter how slowly paying what you can when you can.
Now to make a start on the mortgage.......:D
