So just had £8000+ deemed unenforceable. Thats about a third of my debt. Can't do F and F for a long time, but maybe in time. But for now - it just sits there. And I'm very happy.Isa help to buy: 1000/3000 33%
Emergency fund: 100/1000 10%
Weight loose 8.6 kg - while having fun. 0/8.6 0%

No @BooBoo77 I only really paid my DMP for a year, stopped it to take stock and get the CCA's and 2 more defaults out of the way. So will go self managed as soon as defaults comes through. They are on 2 bank balances that I will def have to pay £1600 altogether so will focus on that hopefully from November. There is a chance my other two credit balances are unenforceable as well, but no word yet - so they are just on hold.BooBoo77 said:

That's really a good lesson in getting CCA status isn't it? My Barclaycard was opened 2004 and my other credit card loans definitely pre 2010 so I'm getting hopeful. Will definitely be squirrelling away those F&F in the meantime. Hope you can get the default sorted and backdated soon.ditty1234 said:

Hello,
Just after some advice, if someone could help me so.
I am with Stepchange, and have been since Dec 14. All my debts have defaulted with the last to drop off August next year. I have been paying them consistently since it started from £180 to now £210. I am now down to 4 creditors. I have moved recently and the bills have risen slightly. I have fluffed my budget out a bit so that i can put aside some money for some F&F's, as i still have another 3 years left on the DMP and i really just want to get rid of it now.
So my revised budget now leaves me to pay £100 ish a month to stepchange (from £210) on debts of £6k. However, when i went to submit it, it wasnt automatically accepted like my usual annual reviews.... probably because in the past it has stayed the same or gone up!! anyhow, i need to ring stepchange on monday to go through it. What is the likelyhood they wont accept my new payment??0
