Customer toolbox
Our goal is to work with each customer to find a solution suited to each individual’s circumstances. We encourage you to contact the agency managing your account on our behalf as soon as possible. However, as everyone’s needs are different, we’ve provided a variety of resources here, which may also be useful to you.
Free and independent advice
If you’re in debt, you need to act quickly to stop the situation getting worse. We are always keen to help customers and look forward to working with you. However, we understand that in some circumstances you may not feel comfortable speaking about your financial situation directly with our agencies or us. If you would also like independent assistance, the following organisations are providers of free, impartial advice:
