Hi everyone, I have been reading with interest your very inspiring posts, which have made me rethink my current financial situation. A bit about me and my situation.
I began with a DMP in 2008, managed by StepChange. I have let this run completing annual reviews. I found the whole process of letters and threats , one person even contacted the HR department of where I work. I hadn’t ignored any requests for information at all, but found them very intimidating. Complaints to the financial ombudsman didn’t result in anything positive so my faith was lost in a system which should have managed this threatening behaviour.
The DMP has been paid regularly over this time.
My my partner isn’t aware of the DMP.
I have been unwell over the last 3 years, after a shock cancer diagnosis , with subsequent ongoing ill health caused by treatment, and the death of a very much loved father from cancer.
i feel the need to tackle the rest of this debt now, otherwise it will be running for another 10 years.
I have taken a look at my current debt all of which would have been initially taken out at some point before 2007. From looking at the many posts I wonder if they are unenforceable.
So today I have taken the first steps to identify if this is the case, obtaining the obligatory £1 postal order to request the information needed.
Please forgive me me if I don’t understand the terminology, if I ask questions that may seem to be easily explained.
I take this step knowing that there are so many supportive people who can guide me through this process, I am happy to take the challenge and feel confident with the support available within this lovely group.
I will post details of each debt in the required format.
Thank you all.
