payment plans - considering dropping it.

[summer30]

I have some debts tied up in a CCCS payment plan they have been for 4 years.

 

In that time I have almost paid off one debt of £300 odd and no where near the others. One debt is a huge £17k

 

my income hasnt really altered and they kept hounding meto have an interview which I didnt do and consequently still pay the same amount pcm. the other month it went through late and I got a snotty email saying that creditors might come knocking or cancel the agreement as they will have to do one payment late.

 

This is far from the niceness I encountered all those years ago and how helpful and supportive they were

 

I know they arent mentioned much on here and not recommended. not sure why? But I guess a part of me is nevous of going it alone although I do deal with all my OHs debts and have learnt so much from here Im sure I could, I think its the real biggy loan thats worrying me, but I could be paying more of that if I arranged payments myself I guess.

 

Hope that makes sense as a post and not a ramble

CCCS are most interested in the repayment of the debts, all else is of a secondary nature, that's why they are not highly regarded. they put the interests of the creditors first. It is also affirmed that manyu of the financial institutions have interests in the CCCS to make sure they don't let you get away with anything

 

There is nothing to stop you cancelling your agreement with CCCS and doing it yourself. Many people just like you have done this, but be aware that these DCA's will not simply stop behaving like arses.

 

The DCAs will continue to harrass you and try to get you to pay more than you can afford. However, only you and a judge can decide how much you can afford to pay, these "people" should have no input on the decision at all.

 

It is not a choice you should make on a whim, but however you decide to move forward, keep us informed and will try to help wherever we can
