IVA's etc

Goldenboy1966

I have been paying off my debts to various credit card/loan companies (most of which have been transfered to debt recovery companies) for several years via a Debt Management company (Payplan). I owe around £40K, by my calculations it will take me 30 years to pay these off. Is there any way that these can be written off now. I know if I had refused to own up they could have been written off by now, but it seems unfair that I still pay £125 per month and seem to be getting no where.

See if you qualify for an IVA, 30 yrs is a silly long time, do you own a house ? Bankruptcy may be an option for you if you don't, do a Google search on IVA`s, there's plenty of info out there.

Maybe try the Stepchange debt remedy - it is on line and can be anonymous if you wish, it might suggest options for your situation?
