After years of being in debt I finally reached out. And I am so pleased I did! The staff are helpful non judgemental and helped explain the whole process and how it would affect me and my credit score. Just under 4 years and I have paid back everything I owed. I feel accomplished and proud, but most importantly thankful for the help I received. Reviewed on: 1st May 2024
