How can debt management help me?

If you've taken on bigger monthly unsecured debt repayments than you can afford and it's making it difficult to pay for the essentials, debt management could be one of the options you look at to even things out.

Perhaps your circumstances have changed or your living costs have increased. Whatever the reason, a debt management plan could help you cope with the problem. A plan would not include any secured loans (like your mortgage, for example) and you would need to keep paying these seperately.

Replace multiple monthly payments with just one

Reduce the monthly cost of repaying your debt... although lower repayments may mean it takes longer and costs more to repay your debt

Could freeze/reduce interest and charges... your lenders aren't guaranteed to do this, but we will negotiate with them for you

Regain control of your finances... without a loan

Stop demands from lenders once an arrangement is agreed... they may still contact you, but you can simply tell them to talk to us instead

At Gregory Pennington we've helped over 200,000 people get out of debt. Our expertise means we can assess whether debt management's suitable for you in a single call.

Why is a debt management plan effective?

Effective for your lenders Although your lenders don't have to agree to reduced payments, in most cases they would rather have smaller, reliable monthly repayments managed by a reputable, professional debt management company than involve debt collectors or the courts - and risk not getting the debt repaid in full.
