in Debt-free wannabe
Hi all Debt Free Wannabes and the kind people who helped out on Tuesday when I was at my wits end!! I have contacted the Consumer Credit Counselling service today and the ball is now rolling... I am not sure how to feel yet as I am aware that creditors could say No!! but they will all be paid !!

    Well done pp - the first step is always the hardest. :T :T
    I am NOT, nor do I profess to be, a Qualified Debt Adviser. I have made MANY mistakes and have OFTEN been the unwitting victim of the the shamefull tactics of the Financial Industry.
    If any of my experiences, or the knowledge that I have gained from those experiences, can help anyone who finds themselves in similar circumstances, then my experiences have not been in vain.
