Hi Guys

Is it possible to use someone such as a financial advisor to give advice on my credit file in order to help me pay things off so that I can get a bank loan?

    If it is advice on items on your credit file then posting your questions on this forum is probably a good starting point.

    If you are behind with repayments and are hoping to offer reduced settlements to your creditors or wanting to set up repayment plans with your creditors then the debt advice charities are probably the best starting point - IMPORTANT - Where to seek professional impartial advice about your debts.

    You want to pay off debt so that you can borrow more money? On the face of it that does not make sense. Perhaps some background information will help the good people on here to give you constructive advice.
