    I think the first thing we need to know is, is this a temporary problem you have or long term are you struggling to pay the loan.

    If you feel comfortable you could post your financial monthly situation.

    They all want it NOW - what you haven't got they can't have - if you havent already done it sort out your statement of means and tell them how much you can afford to pay and make sure you pay it - it is hard to begin with and they will hassle you and threaten allsorts - but eventually they will accept the lower payments
