Can you list the debts in the DMP please, current creditor name, balance? How long ago did the DMP start?
Are the 15k of other debts since the DMP? Can you list those too? Lender name, balance.
A combination of affordability complaints to the new debts and asking for the CCA agreement for debts sold to a debt collector may be a real help in clearing the debts a lot faster.0 -
actually a full statement of accounts would be best for us to advise on how to tighten up your budget. see my signature for the link.
I do agree with ManyWays that affordibility complaints and requests for CCAs are a good idea. Particularly the first if the debt not in the DMP has come along since the DMP started.
