Have you contacted the credit card and loan companies and asked for copies of proof of the payments?

[Kashul 10]

Beans is right, contact the CC and Loan companies and ask for copies and if you paid by card or cheque you will ahve proof on your bank statements....It may take a little time but you will get it sorted hon, I hope this all works out for you, sounds like you and your lil ones have been through enough.

Go and talk to an advisor at your nearest Citizens' Advice Bureau.

Star( I think Thurdays) has a job section, look in there, get a job, pay your debts.

 

Sorted

 

As for them not believing you TBH I am not that suprised it does all sund a little fishy(not to be harsh).

[Spyro 10]

I would go along with what spoon said. CAB would be a good port of call.

Best to get your story straight before you go though. In all fairness, I don't believe it either.

 

Hope it all works out for you.

Although Bonjon was harsh, he does have a point, it just wasn't well made!

 

I was in a similar position 14 years ago, when my husband and I split up and I had a huge mortgage to pay, with my ex dodging paying maintenance and bills to pay that I just didn't have the cash for and a 3-year old just about to start nursery. I applied for about 20 jobs within a week and took the best one offered and have since worked my way up, as well as further education and 14 years later my position couldn't be more different than back then. I know you may think it's impossible to get out of, but anything is possible.

 

Get some financial advice.

Actively look for work.

Don't fall for any more losers!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with spoonster. Get down to CAB asap. They'll tell you exactly what to do and may even do it for you. You'll feel so much better when someone is helping you.

 

You can use your postcode to find the nearest office here.

Citizens Advice Bureau

 

Best of luck and I hope you get it sorted it soon.

Dont take this the wrong way, but if you are living on crisis loans since January, how can you afford to get married, and of all places Jamaica like you posted yesterday
