Example:
A family of 4 have a total household income of £1,500 per month. They pay £500 a month to their unsecured creditors leaving £1,000 to
pay their mortgage, utility bills, food, and keep the car on the road. At this moment in time everything is under control. Unfortunately, the father
has had his overtime cut and the mother cannot yet return to work (the children are still too small and nursery fee's are too expensive) and
they find they have lost £400 per month from their usual income. They now have what they consider to be a dire situation, the creditors
still want their £500 and appear to have a total disregard for the family's misfortune. How can this family now live on £600 a month?

Debt management is a way of consolidating your existing debts from unsecured lenders* to a monthly or weekly affordable payment.
To help explain this see the example on the left.
Can you relate to this example, or maybe you have been made redundant, a long term illness, maybe a split with a partner, maybe
all this happened years ago and you didn't realise it was so serious because the creditors kept raising your credit limit. There are many
reasons why people get into debt and normally an easy solution if you look in the right place.
The trouble is after trying to talk to the creditors you feel confused, fearful of what they will do if you don't pay them what they ask. You
remember all those horror stories you've heard from your friends and colleagues. The creditors know this. This is what they want, and this
is how they get their money.
Unfortunately for them you have rights too. If we can prove, by doing a simple financial statement, that it is unreasonable to maintain
what you are paying them, then we can design a repayment plan with a reduced amount per month. From this point onward you will not
have to deal with your creditors again. You will make one monthly (or weekly) reduced payment to Chambers Moore Ltd and we will distribute
the negotiated amount proportionately between your creditors. If you receive letters you simply forward them to us and we will action them
accordingly. If you receive a phone call do not enter into conversation but simply give them our number and terminate the call. This is not
illegal as some people would have you believe, it is your right!
* bank loans, overdrafts, credit cards, store cards, catalogues, HP on most household purchases including furniture and pc's
(except Crazy George's) utility bills from companies no longer being used, but NOT secured loans against a property or a HP against a motor
vehicle still in the owners possession.
