surviving the recession

There are more and more stories online about people being harassed by debt collectors, despite the fact that laws are in place to protect vulnerable individuals from being frightened to death.

What should you do if you are in this situation? The best way to protect yourself from debt collectors, is to get in touch with one of the debt charities such as Consumer Credit Counselling. They should be able to inform you of your rights, and in some cases, will negotiate and deal with the debt collectors on your behalf, so that the personal harassment stops.

Many people don’t get help because they are ashamed, but the debt charities are completely confidential and they are free, so avail yourself of their help.
