How we’ve helped others with their debts
Shamiya’s story
Shamiya contacted us when she received a County Court action for utility arrears of over £2,000. Shamiya’s debt had escalated as the utility meter hadn’t been read for some time resulting in an unexpected bill that she couldn’t afford to pay. She contacted the utility company to try and resolve the issue but the dispute rumbled on without a resolution until she received the summons to appear in court.
Shamiya contacted our advice line and met with one of our advisers. After a brief assessment we were able to challenge the action of the utility company and as a result we secured a reduction in the original charge from £2,000 to £800. We also came to an agreement to pay back the rest of the debt in an affordable monthly sum which enabled Shamiya to clear her debt over a fixed period of time.
