  • We will respond promptly to any request or application for assistance you make to us.

  • We always encourage you to keep making whatever payments you can while we are considering your request for assistance.

  • We will not list any default on your credit reference file while we are considering your application or request for assistance.
  • We will not sell any debt to another company while we are still considering the application or request.
  • If we agree on a plan to assist you, we will summarise this in a letter to you
