Iam just about to send my annual review. I had major car works which my wife paid on her credit card and I set up a direct debit to pay £100 a month to the card which shows in my statements. Should I be worried about it. The payment has now finished. Thank you
Hi Scottspark and welcome.
If it didn’t impact on your Trust Deed payment then I see no problem with it so don’t worry.
Things like this come up over the course of a Trust Deed and as TDA advised it sounds like you did what needed.

Thank you. Yes I phone up and got the same response was so worried. Thanks for the reply
Glad to hear it’s worked out ok and there isn’t any issues which there shouldn’t have been.
There needs to be some flexibility and understanding when it comes to Trust Deed’s as things change over a 4 year period. Life can sometimes get in the way and even with the best planning and budgeting things can always come up.
How have you found the Trust Deed up until now, is it something you would encourage people to think about if they are struggling with debts?

For myself It has helped me out loads. I was always spending on credit cards and going into my overdraft. I took the decision a year ago and it has been a god send. I can actually save money for the first time in I dont know how many years.
That’s really positive to hear that it’s been a good decision to enter into one. Thanks for sharing that as I’m sure it will give other people the confidence that a Trust Deed can make a big difference to them financially.
Before you know it you will be coming to the end of your 4 years and you will be back onto the forum to let us know you have successfully completed it.

While in a trust deed if you have savings will this affect the review in terms if having to pay more each month. Thanks
Not if it's modest amounts Scottspark.
It makes perfect sense to set aside some money every month to cover irregular expenses.
If the savings built up because your income had increased, or your bills had gone down, that might be different.
Hi thanks. No my wages are the same and my Bill's around the same aswell, iam just so nervous as this is my first review and dint know what to expect. Our joint account closed when I signed the trust deed so my wife took control of the major Bill's from her account which I transfer into. Will I need to send her bank statement aswell. Thanks again
