It is an informal and  flexible arrangement between us and our creditors. Payments can be  tailor made to suit our individual needs. We may not have to release  equity in our property. We will eventually repay all of our debts and  become <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nationaldebtrelief.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\">debt free<\/a>.  Creditors often prefer a Debt Management Plan to other financial  solutions. The details of our Debt Management Plan will not be put on an  official register. A Debt Management Plan will address all of our  unsecured debts. Employers will not know about our Debt Management Plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some downsides to a Debt Management Plan as well. The \nduration of the Debt Management Plan could be long since all debts are \nto be paid in full. All creditors may not agree to freeze interest and \nsuspend penalties. If we engage the services of a Debt Management \nCompany there will be monthly management fees to pay. It is possible \nalthough unlikely that it could affect our credit rating negatively.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not a lot it must be said.
