yes quite possibly do you know if there is any chance i can miss a debt out of a debt managment plan i e my gurrantor loan ?0

I think my second lo last message suggested that you may be able to leave out but increase your outgoings to cover that debt - for example if payments are £200 a month then create payments that add to £200 - food shop increase, maybe £100 for smoking etc.
Does that make sense?0 -

Loan 2 £300/£5800
Total £5500/£138000 -

There are also courses that allow student loans that are only paid back when earning upwards of £21,000 plus.
I have A levels but wanted a level 3 NVQ for a job and got the loan through, and don't need to pay it back yet. It's only £1100 and doesn't show on my file.Aiming to make £7,500 online in 20220 -

A DMP sounds the right thing. It will last as long as it takes to pay debts off (I believe).
I think I'm correct in saying debts stay in your credit file for 6 years. If the company register a default then the debt will disappear off you file in 6 years; settled or not. Any non defaulted debts will be on there for 6 years after you finish paying - ideally you want defaults (I know it sounds daft).0 -

they still lent to you during this period.. Don't feel you owe loyalty to any creditor, they certainly don't feel any to you when they sell it to a debt collector.
they will lend to you again if you match the criteria and can afford to pay.0 -
