i take home £1000 a month. My credt card bills are £450 and I pay rent of £350.

Hi,

I presume the remainder of your income is spent on everyday expenses?

I would recommend that you seek advice from a professional by visiting www.iva.com where you will find a list of companies and reviews and you will get free and impartial advice as to all the options open to you.

I think however, that you may be advised to enter a debt management plan if you cannot afford to make the payments on your debts.
