Debt Management Plan - From £12.50 per week

A Debt Management Plan can be used to resolve any problem you may have with your unsecured debts. You tell us who you owe money to, how much you owe and how much you can afford to pay each month. Then we take over. We negotiate with your creditors to agree affordable monthly repayments and we make the payments on your behalf. Your debts will steadily reduce until you have repaid what you owe. 

We will only recommend debt management plan to you if this is the right debt solution for you and we can do this because at DebtFC we specialise in every debt solution, so we don’t need to apply a 'one solution fits all' approach.

DebtFC will negotiate to try to reduce or freeze any interest or other charges on your debts, although we cannot guarantee this.

Your debt management plan is fully flexible and can be changed at any time to suit your changing circumstances and needs. 

We keep your debt management plan under regular review and, if we believe that an alternative solution has become available, we will tell you about it, so that you can make an informed choice as to what you want to do. At DebtFC we hope to help you on your journey to a debt free life. 

 

The Debt Management Process

A full assessment of your financial situation is carried out. To do this, we need to know your regular income and expenditure, who you owe money to (your creditors) and any other relevant information about your personal circumstances.

By collating this information into a Financial Statement, we are then able to determine how much you can realistically afford to offer each of your creditors.

Your creditors will then be approached and asked to accept the reduced payments. In most cases creditors are happy to agree the plans we initiate because they know, from experience, that such plans are realistic and sustainable.

You then make a single monthly payment, which is distributed pro rata to your creditors.

Throughout the duration of your plan, you will have an assigned debt consolidaton advisor whom you can contact should you experience any difficulties whilst the arrangement is in place.

Your plan will be reviewed at regular intervals to ensure that it still meets your circumstances.

The plan will continue until your debts are cleared or until you wish to voluntarily end the arrangement. Most common reason for this being an improvement in income enabling a client to leave the plan and revert to their original monthly payments.

Advantages of Debt Management

  • You no longer have to deal with your creditors.
  • You make one payment that you can afford.
  • Your payments are re-evaluated frequently so that any changes to your situation can be taken into account.
  • You only make one payment a month.

Disadvantages of Debt Management

  • Debt management plans are not legally binding so creditors do not have to agree to repayment schedules. However, if the arrangement works well the creditors will be happy to co-operate.
  • Your surplus income is low and would therefore mean that you would be making the repayments for many years. If this is the case there are other options available such as a Scottish Protected Trust Deed or an Individual Voluntary Arrangement.
