If you’re having trouble making your payments, please contact us as soon as possible, so that we can discuss your circumstances and look at ways that we can best support you.

Getting the help you need

If you’re in financial difficulty it can impact both your mental and physical health and wellbeing. Taking a proactive approach to managing your money worries is always the best way forward. If you are facing any of the following situations, it might be time to think about getting some help:

  • You're worried about money and paying back what you owe - your debts feel like a huge burden
  • You're being contacted about unpaid bills and missed payments
  • You're dealing with difficult circumstances which are making it harder for you to manage your money
  • You're regularly spending more than you earn
  • You're struggling to pay your mortgage, rent, utility bills, or minimum payments on your credit cards
  • You can't manage your day to day spending without relying on your credit card or overdraft
  • Your credit cards are at the maximum credit limit
