Re-mortgage but with arrears

I have 6 weeks arrears on my mortgage and got into some financial difficulty 2 years ago. I have an agreement with payplan to pay off my debts. I also have a second charge on my mortgage with about 8k left on it.

My house is worth 140k and the mortgage i have is for 73k plus the second charge.

If i could re-mortgage i would be able to clear all my debts and end up paying out less each month.

This is my problem and i don't know if i will be able to do what i want due to the circumstances.

Currently paying off my mortgage + 2nd charge + arrears + Payplan does not leave much to get by on. If i could re-mortgage i think i would be much better of from one month to the next.

It seems like i am currently getting no place due to all the fees i am paying from the debtors i have.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

    What is your income? Age?

    Sub prime rates are currently high.

    Maybe you would be better off going to the Debt Free Wannabe board.
