Hi
I am on a DMP with Stepchange, all payments made on time. I have received a letter from HSBC regarding my overdraft which is part of the DMP saying that the payments aren't enough to repay the debt in a reasonable time and if I do not repay in full by a 29 Jan they will pass it to there Repayment Services Team.
The letter then goes on to say that I should contact a debt charity or CAB for advice ???
They know that i'm already with a debt charity ?
Not sure what to do ??

Leave it with them. The ball is in their court. Their Repayment Services Dept may be more switched on (but given it's HSBC I doubt it).
Whatever, you're paying what you can afford and using a recognised charity.
How long will it take before you clear the debt?0 -

Well at my present rate my debt free date is May 2020 however my payments will decrease in April as I have to start paying back a student loan but then the lease is up on my flat in September so I plan to move somewhere cheaper so I will be able to pay more in to it !Total Unsecured Debt at October 2018 £29,411

It sounds like more or less a standard letter saying there not happy with the amount your paying so there moving the account to collections, this is usually done prior to possible sale of the account.
