Natwest is my bank account with a large overdraft of 2700. My family have pretty much taken over the running of my accounts and they are seeking advice but I am trying to seek as much information as possible to assist them. I have a feeling that they want to settle my bank account in full first, not...

Thank you for the reply Ian, much appreciated.

Hi, back again! Since my last post I have had major talks with my family and lost the plot because my girlfriend left a few days ago (not good [:(] ) Anyway....

Cahoot were very pleasant and said they would hold the account for as long as possible and if I could make any payment at anytime that would be great. MBNA advised me that f...

Hi and thanks for the replies, they are what I expected so no shock there. I would like to learn more about bankruptcy but my understanding is that you still pay what you can afford for X amount of time? Am I correct in saying that I am very unlikely to be made bankrupt, so hanging out until I find ...

I owe a total approx £27k of unsecured debt, currently living at home with parents who used to charge but due to my current circumstances have let me off. I am currently u...
