Your initial appointment can be completed via telephone, video call or face to face in one of our office locations. We also have a limited number of evening and weekend appointments available.
You can inform our advisers of your preferences when booking an appointment.
After your initial appointment, your case will be periodically reviewed. We assess all received documents and information and will work through it in a priority-based order. You may not receive an immediate response from your caseworker if you reach out but rest assured, your case is being monitored and appropriate action taken as and when required.
You can find further information on managing your debts and a wide range of self-help tools here.
We understand your situation could be stressful and you might be frustrated – but our staff have the right to do their jobs without being treated badly and verbal abuse will not be tolerated; your call or appointment will be ended if abuse continues following a warning.
