Expert Debt Advice
Scottishtrustdeed.co.uk provide help and advice to people on the most common debt solutions such as;
- Scottish Trust Deeds
- Debt Arrangement Schemes
- Minimal Asset Process
- Bankruptcy (Sequestration)
But we can also provide expert advice on Debt Management and Individual Voluntary Arrangements (if you are based in England).
The most common debt solution is a Scottish Trust Deed and to qualify for one of these you must meet the following criteria;
- Owe at least £5,000 in unsecured debts
(this can be made up of store cards, credit cards, unsecured loans, catalogue debts, council tax debts or benefit over-payments. We cannot service secured debts such as secured loans or hire purchase agreements. If you have a mix of secured and unsecured debt, you can still apply, you would need to be able to continue paying your secured debts as arranged) - Owe money to at least 2 creditors
- Be able to make a monthly contribution of at least £100 per month towards your debt
- You must live in Scotland as a resident for at least the last 6 months
If you don’t meet one of these criteria you will fall into the category for either a Debt Arrangement Scheme, Minimal Asset Process, or as a last resort, Bankruptcy (also known as Sequestration in Scotland).
