    Pretty basic info needed really:

    Name & address,

    Financial details, how much credit, how it will be re-paid, interest rate applicable etc etc,

    Terms and conditions in force at the time of signing,

    No signature is required to be on it.

    Thanks. Thats what I thought, there is no date on anything so tricky to know if the info is as it was back in 2012.

    "Also seeking advice from national debt helpline".

    Its National Debtline.org, do not use any other with a similar sounding name.

    Googling "National debt helpline" will only bring up numerous debt management companies wanting to sell you an IVA.

    Make sure its National Debtline.org, no other.
