Destiny,
I'm so sorry you're in this situation ...
I can't offer any specific help, but I do know where you'll find it. If you post on Debt Free Wanabee, there are some really helpful people, many of whom have been in your position.
I'm sure that by the end of tomorrow (and maybe even tonight), you'll have a plan of action to get on track to sorting out your immediate problem, and also your other debts (the DFWers will stick by you for the long run too).
Take care Destiny, I hope you get something sorted xGone ... or have I?0 -
Hi DS
Have you looked at the Debt-Free Wannabe board? I think you will find help there.
I'm sure you will be able to get things sorted.
Best wishes

As well as posting in the debt-free wannabe board, I would give the consumer credit counselling service a call - www.cccs.co.uk/
They won't charge you anything, and they should be able to give you some really good advice about how to stop people hassling you, etc... & help you deal with your debt without having to worry so much.0
