Bankruptcy Advice?

Can't meet your monthly debt payments?

If you cannot meet your monthly debt payments, then bankruptcy maybe the only option available.
I would very much advise you to speak to a debt advisor to establish exactly where your finances lie. There are other options available, such as:

Debt Management Plans
IVA - Individual Voluntary Arrangements
Consolidation Loans

Need a loan?

What is a Consolidation Loan?



Are you struggling to meet your monthly debt payments?
Are you robbing Peter to pay Paul?

Then a consolidation may be the best option for you to resolve these debt problems. We have great rates on Secured (Homeowner)Loans with rates starting at 7%APR

If you are not a homeowner but you still need debt consolidation, then a debt management plan maybe a better option for you. A debt management plan will help you reduce your monthly payments in to one affordable payment.

The Last Resort

Bankruptcy Advice



Bankruptcy is a very important step in resolving any financial situation and it has always been considered the last resort in a long line of debt solutions.

Your property, assets and some personal belongings will be at risk when entering into bankruptcy, as these will be sold and this money paid directly to your creditors a long with any monthly payment that the court believes you can afford.
Bankruptcy is not an enjoyable situation to be in, you finances in most cases are never your own and you are informed to what you can spend.

Have a look at other debt solutions such as “Debt Management Plans" or "IVAs" before making Bankruptcy your final choice.
