You have a cancellation right which is sent out in the written information sent to you. You are also entitled to a 'cooling off' period, which ends seven working days after you receive your contract documents. If you change your mind during this cooling off period any monies paid will be returned to you with no charge being made.
Advantages of Debt Management
- Monthly payments are calculated by assessing your disposable income (the amount you have left when all your essential expenses have been paid from your income)
- We work on your behalf to aim to freeze or reduce the interest on your accounts
- It is not public knowledge that you are on a Debt Management plan
- We will deal with all of your creditors, negotiating on your behalf and dealing with any paperwork you receive
- If your circumstances change a Debt Management plan can be re-assessed to make the repayments more affordable (you can increase or usually decrease your payments if needed)
- As standard we will review your Debt Management plan every six months to check if you have had any changes to your circumstances and to check for any other, more appropriate repayment methods if they are suitable
- You are not tied in to a fixed repayment term on a Debt Management plan
Disadvantages of Debt Management
- You will have to pay your debts back in full and because you are paying less than the contractual repayments, it will take you a longer time to repay the accounts
- We cannot force creditors to accept offers or freeze interest.
- Creditors may still take court action against you.
- A Debt Management plan will affect your credit rating because you are breaking the contractual repayments on the accounts.
- We are a fee charging company therefore we will deduct a monthly management fee to run your Debt Management plan
