Spreading the cost of your bigger energy bill is an effective way of avoiding further action. We have a letter template that will help you do this politely and professionally, while also saving you time.

Cancel Your Existing Debt Management plan
A Debt Management Plan (DMP) is not a legally binding debt solution, meaning you are allowed to cancel your plan at any time. If you wish to cancel your existing DMP to switch to a cheaper DMP provider, use this letter to request a DMP cancellation.
If you signed up for the DMP online or over the phone in the last 30 days, you can also request 100% of your money back!

Before you contact the Official Receiver at the Insolvency Office about the incident, make your creditors or debt collectors aware of their breach with this free letter template. Sending our letter should be the last contact you have with your creditors.

Hold Action While You Apply for a Debt Relief Order
Have you applied for a Debt Relief Order? The usual processing times of DRO applications have slowed down in 2021. This is one of many reasons why it is important to ask your creditors to hold action on your account – and freeze interest – while you apply for the DRO. Our letter template will help you get the message across to your creditors effectively.

Hold Action While You Move your DMP
If you are not just cancelling your DMP but moving it to another provider, it is best to let your creditors know what is going on. Moving your DMP could create a delay that forces you to miss a payment. You don’t want to aggravate your creditors and cause them to withdraw from the DMP agreement, so keep them in the loop with this letter. It will ask them to hold action on your account while the DMP switch takes place.
