Hey everyone.
Quick question basically stepchange are helping me at present and I'm going to set up a DMP soon. But at the moment I'm making the most of being able to put aside some money each month so I can get my first car but I'm worried as soon as I buy it it will get taken away from me.. If I set up a dmp and they see I have an asset as a car will that get taken from me... I'm working hard to try and get a car so I can set my own business up!

Whose going to take it away from you ????
Assets are only taken away from you in Bankrupcy, you are a long way from that !!!!!
A DMP. Is an informal agreement, between you and your creditors, it's not a regulated agreement, you are free to leave it whenever you want, no one has the power to take your car from you.
