A Debt Management Plan from DebtMatters is a way of helping you make affordable payments to your creditors. Our debt advisors will assess your income and outgoings and ultimately prove to your creditors that you can not meet all your payments. We will negotiate and agree a single new and affordable payment of your debt direct with your creditors. From this payment we will distribute an amount to each creditor on a pro-rata basis.
Creditors do not have to accept the debt plan but more are willing to accept them if we can prove it is beneficial and agreeable to both parties. Every effort will be made to encourage your creditors to freeze interest and other charges. Please note that if your creditors refuse to freeze interest, paying the same debts over a longer period of time will increase the total amount to be paid.
If you do not qualify for an IVA or wish to avoid damage to your credit rating then a debt plan to help you manage your debts may be the better option. You can always switch from a debt management plan to a DebtMatters IVA should you change your mind in the future.
