It’s most appropriate for those who have debts of more than £6,500 and cannot afford to meet repayments, who see missed payment charges incurred, interest increasing and their debt spiraling.
However, a debt specialist will be able to shed more light on this and discuss whether it is the right option for you. We can tell you, without obligation, how best to get on a stable financial footing.
You agree to repay as much as you can towards your unsecured debts – normally for four years – and at the end of that time, any remaining unsecured debt is written off. During your trust deed, you’ll also be protected against further action from lenders included in the agreement – so they won’t be able to make you bankrupt or demand higher payments.
