Debt Solutions for those living in Newcastle
Money Advice Direct have offer solutions to debt problems that will help residents of Newcastle to get out of debt but also give them a decent standard of living, something many people in Newcastle struggling with debt don't have. The debt solutions available are the following:-
- Debt Management - A debt management plan can be used to solve most problems you may have with your unsecured debts. It is an informal arrangement that is suitable if you do not have very significant debts, do not have a very high disposable income, or you expect that your circumstances may change in the near future. The advantages of a debt management plan are you make one affordable payment each month which is distributed to your creditors on a pro-rate basis.A debt management plan is fully flexible and can be changed at any time to suit your changing circumstances and needs. Read more about Debt Management Plans. Please note that for consumers considering a Debt Management Plan (DMP), although the consumer may become debt free at the end of the DMP period, if a default notice has been issued the effect is likely to remain on the consumer's credit profile for a lengthy time.
Please note that for consumers considering a Debt Management Plan (DMP), if interest and charges continue to apply then there will be an increase in the total amount of debt to be repaid and that due to lower monthly payments it is very likely that the debt will have to be repaid over a longer period of time.
- IVA - An Individual Voluntary Arrangement more commonly known as an IVA is a legally binding agreement for the satisfaction of debts usually lasting five years. To enter into an IVA, you would usually have to have at least £15,000 of unsecured debt. It is a genuine method of avoiding bankruptcy while still being subject to a formal insolvency procedure. Read more about IVAs here.
- Debt Consolidation or remortgage - Debt consolidation means you take out a single loan to pay off all your other existing debts. This often means you get a lower interest rate, which also makes your overall monthly repayments lower. Debt consolidation simplifies your repayment arrangements. Unlike Debt Management, where your previous debts are not cleared, a Debt Consolidation Loan clears all old debts once and for all. The key benefits of debt consolidation are reduced financial commitments and less risk of late payment fees. Read all about Consolidation loan or Remortgages here.
- Basic money Management - Many people with smaller debt problems may find a chat with a debt adviser could help them get on top of their finances without making any major lifestyle changes. Once the adviser understands their financial circumstances, they should be able to provide some budgeting advice and suggest practical ways of reducing their level of debt.
