Reduce your monthly outgoings with Debt Management
How DMP works
If you can’t afford your monthly payments
to credit cards, store cards, loans and overdrafts, our debt management
plan can replace them all with a single affordable payment. We could
possibly stop demands from creditors and even reduce or freeze interest
and charges on your debt with creditor’s agreement.
Debt management can be the easiest and
quickest solution to your debt problems. If you take out a debt
management plan with us, we will review your financial situation and
determine the best repayment scheme available to you. This means, how
much you are able to pay over a certain amount of time.
We will then act on your behalf to
negotiate these repayment terms to every party you owe money to. This
means you no longer have to deal with creditors (the people you owe
money to), bailiffs or anyone else demanding money.
What a debt management plan
demonstrates to your creditors is that you are very serious and
committed to repaying your debts in full. It gives you peace of mind
that you are dealing with your debt problem in a structured way and can
now see the route forward to a debt free life.
Whilst it is true that creditors are not bound by a
debt management plan, because it is not a legally binding agreement like
an IVA, many of your creditors prefer this type of arrangement because
it reduces the cost of their collections, and they get a better
financial return than if you enter an IVA or are declared bankrupt.
Allowing us to
set up your plan means we will handle all communications with your
creditors and if you do continue to get any letters in the mail, simply
forward them to us and we will deal with them. Our comprehensive service
means you no longer need to discuss your debts with a bank or credit
card company, instead you can relax with confidence – your finances are
under control.
How Debt Management Helps
Lower payments.
Payments are based on
disposable income once essential outgoings such as rent and food are
budgeted for. Many non-obvious items can be included as essential living
expenses, please contact us for full details.
One payment.
Less hassle, you pay us and we forward payments to your creditors.
No need for creditors to contact you.
You can advise your creditors
that NDC are dealing with your debts and you may refer any
correspondence from your creditors to us.
Flexibility.
If your financial circumstances change for the better or the worse, you may adjust payments accordingly.
No charges for late or missed payments.
Often we can achieve to have interest payments stopped at the point of entering the debt management plan.
No need to get involved in legal proceedings
Unlike an IVA, debt management is an informal agreement, not involving the courts nor requiring minimum debts.
Does not put your home at risk
Unlike a secured debt
consolidation loan, you do not run the risk of having your home
repossessed should you not be able to make payments.
