Hello to everyone,
I have been reading the posts for a few weeks and its a good place for support and really good advice.
i myself have a large debt spread over 5 creditors.
It all finally got too much and i was trying to pay out more than i actually took home.I went to my bank and they advised the cab.I went there and ended up phoning cccs.
At the moment i am having to wait for a tax credit letter as my payment will change due to civil partnership so at the moment i cannot complete the online form.
Cccs advised i wrote to the creditors in the meantime while i was waiting...which i have done.
I recieved a letter from my credit card company wanting me to fill in a state of affairs with a realistic amount for payment.Do i do this or do i wait until i have recieved the tax credit letter and am in contact again with cccs?
be really grateful if anyone can help??
If i dont fill it out what do i say to them in the meantime?

Hi and welcome to the forum.

It is up to you whether or not you get in touch with this creditor, but I do recommend that you speak to one or two other companies. Visit www.iva.com for a list of companies and reviews. The advice is free and impartial and they will take into account your tax credit query.

Hi
I would talk to several experts/companies as well as the CCCS and explore all options, I wouldn't fill out an income and expenditure for just one company, better to let this be sent by the company dealing with your case
Good luck
Regards
