Should I have done it differently?

I wonder if anyone can help.

Two years ago, I had a mortgage of £147,000 and total debts (credit cards and loans) of around £60,000.

I was in a situation where I was in arrears with my mortgage (two months), was running a huge overdraft (£3,000) and could barely meet the minimum payments of all my debt.

Through a lot of bouncing around of the debt, I managed to consolidate onto my mortgage. I know it's water under the bridge, but at the time I did not consider Payplan. Would that have been my better option?
