They didn't tell me to ring the Samaritans

Just put my details (horrendous) into CCCS and fully expected a 'sorry mate but you really are in the s***' response. Didn't get one, they want me to ring them. Hope it'snot just to say 'sorry mate you really are in the s***' :rotfl: I'll let you know how I get on, to be honest I feel better just because I'm trying to get myself sorted.

We have seen defecits of about £1 a month and no jobs if you beat that I will give you Samritans number!
I remember getting a job at DVLA in Swansea and in the welcome back was the Samritans number...0 -
I can only agree with above posts.
cccs, were absolutely brilliant with me, and certainly made me feel more secure about my future. You only feel the need for samaritans before not after speaking to them.

Went through the CCCS online stuff and plucked up the courage to give them a bell. Nice girl on the phone went through stuff with me and told me to go back to the website and print off my personal booklet.
16 pages long and as I mentioned previously it may as well have been titled 'You are in the S***'.
Tells me that with my outstanding debts I've got £600 more going out than coming in and advises me to get another job then says......
Until you have improved your situation, we are unable to provide you with a solution to your debt problem, because you have no money to repay your debts.

hello, just wanted to say welcome and good luck. the hardest bit is admitting there is a problem and you can't cope (IMHO), it was for us anyway.
Try posting your SOA as others have said and see if anyone can make any suggestions.
the only way is up!!0
