Want to leave debt management company

hoping someone can help me with a problem i'm having working to pay off my debts. back in 2001 my husband and i signed up to eurodebt finance. they started managing our 20k debt for a modest fee each month. at the time we had a baby and i was working and neither of us had the know how or energy to fend off debt collectors and bailiffs ourselves so we were happy to let eurodebt wave their magic wand and take away all the pressure. however now they have become money save they are a lot more aggressive a company constantly pressuring us to take out ivas which we dont want to do plus the management fee has risen to an unacceptable level.

what i need to know is can we cancel this arrangement and go to paying the debts which are now 12k ourselves? i cant find any terms and conditions on their website to check if the scheme is exitable.

has anyone on here done this?
