Straight answers. Can't see yours? Give us a call.
Will consolidating my debts save me money?
It can, especially if you’re paying high interest on credit cards or store cards. But a longer loan term can mean paying more overall, so the calculator shows the total cost as well as your monthly repayment. We’ll compare it all with you before you decide.
Should I close my credit cards after consolidating?
Many people do, so the balances don’t build up again. We’ll talk through what makes sense for you, including keeping one card for emergencies with a lower limit.
When is the best time to do a debt consolidation?
Before you need to, we quite often have clients coming to us wanting to consolidate debts to free up cashflow, but they have already missed payments on their current loans.

No. The calculator doesn’t ask for personal details or run a credit check, so you can try as many scenarios as you like.
