I hope you can help me, I have read many comments about a company called Restart UK. I have already paid this company £100.00 and signed a document giving them permission to act on my behalf, after reading this adverse comments about this company I am beginning to wonder if i am being taken for a ride, none of the adverse comments I have read actually say why this company is not legitimate in the service they provide (do they run off with your money) hope you can shed some light on this matter for me because my next instalement is due on the 23rd of this month, and I am beginning to loose sleep over this |

The question you need to be asking yourself is this. What can they do for me that i cannot do myself.
I always say, think about what you want to or need to do, ask your questions on a forum like this, if you still cannot do it then perhaps pay for a service |

just wanted to add that like you i have heard not so great things about this company, but then again people who feel that they have had a bad experience tend to shout louder |

there is a thread on the IVA forum that basically slates this so called company and the general ad vice is steer well clear of them If you require the services of a company to assist you through and beyond the BR process the one i would suggest is RevivaUK www.revivauk.com speak to Paul Johns he is one of this forum's professional experts and comes highly recommended
Dave
Don't worry or know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubble gum.(Baz Lurman) RevivaUK helped me through it all i can't recommend them enough!! |

What they are doing is not illegal, but they are going to charge you a lot of money for something you can do yourself. They don't care about you, just money and I would not send them anymore.

Hi
I agree with what has been said by others.
BR is designed to be a relatively straightforward process (If you have already assessed that is your route).
This forum will be able to guide you through the stages and share experiences and is FREE.
I am happy to make suggestions as you set out your situation. I am not an insolvency expert - my area is the law surrounding repossession and preventing it (where possible).
There are far too many people losing their homes, when it can be prevented.
I look forward to seeing if I or others can assist you.
One thing to remember is that there are hundreds of thousands of people in the same situation as us and if we support each other, it may make the journey a little easier!
regards, Richard

Thanks Jan,
I hope that things are well with you.
I wish I could assist people with more than cyber advice - hence the reason why I am doing the CAB training - I am on the second round of their training programme now - a while yet before they set me loose on the public by myself!!
We are enjoying our new granddaughter...and that has rounded off what was otherwise a "not so good" year - an understatement!!
Have a great day - sun is shining in Devon
Rgds, Richard

Sun is shining in the Midlands as well, although I would rather be where you are!
I'm sure you will do a great job once your training is done, and let's face it, cyber advice is brilliant if you don't have anything else and you do a good job.

Thanks Jan
You and yours are welcome if you are wanting a trip down south... We lived in Stoke on Trent in the early 1980s.
We live in Plymouth which is ideal for Devon and Cornwall - we have spare rooms and a swimming pool and sauna!
The offer is there ande to other "regulars" who post here.
Have just had first visit from our daughter since she gave us a new grandaughter last week - it is their first "outing"... Joy that has given me again!
Have a good day, Richard

Hi jan,
Yes, I am, but I am not that active on it - One of our kids set it up a while ago - my last name is Parry (I assume you know that anyway from my profile!)
Be happy to accept you on as a friend. Richard
