DEBT ADVICE NOW FOR SCOTLAND

Tenable Solutions Limited are now able to offer advice for companies / individuals in Scotland. There are small differences in the law that covers Scotland and these affect the solutions that you are offered for your problem.

It is uncommon for a company to offer advice to Scotland as well ad England and Wales but we have a qualified and dedicated team who can provide expert debt advice for Scotland as well as England and Wales. We understand the differences in the law and can advise the best possible route for you based on your personal circumstances.

LILA

LILA is a similar to the Debt Relief Order which came into force in England & Wales in April 2008. In a nutshell it is a new route to bankruptcy for people who have a low income and negligible assets and reside in Scotland.

LILA is a solution for people who are unable to clear their debt because they are unable to repay their debt within a sensible timescale this being because they are on a minimal income and have no assets.

LILA is granted by the Accountant in Bankruptcy if you meet the strict criteria. The current cost to apply for bankruptcy via LILA is £100.

The current determining criteria for LILA is:-

• Earning less than £229.50 per week for 40 hours (if you receive income support, job-seekers allowance, working tax-credits then you will be treated as meeting the low income text even if your weekly income is more than £229.50)
• Do not own one single asset worth more than £1,000 and total assets worth no more than £10,000
• Not able to meet your current repayments and charges
• Have debts over £1,500

As with everything relating to debt there are pros and cons - every one's situation is different. If you would like to find out more about LILA then please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Protected Trust Deed

A Protected Trust Deed is similar to an Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) in England & Wales. Unlike many other financial solutions it offers flexibility, affordability and protection from creditors.

If you enter into a Protected Trust Deed, you make one affordable monthly payment to an Insolvency Practitioner (IP); they then distribute this to the creditors. the IP also deals with the sale of any significant assets that you may have and again this would be distributed to your creditors.

Some of the advantages of a Protected Trust Deed Include:-

• Interest and penalty charges will be frozen
• Repayment is set at what you can reasonably afforded and this is all you will pay
• All correspondence and queries from your creditors will be dealt with by your Trustee (IP)
• All pressure from your creditors will stop
• After completing a protected Trust Deed (normally 3 years), you will be ready to start afresh financially

If you would like discuss Protected Trust Deeds then please do not hesitate to contact our experienced and knowledgeable staff.

Sequestration

Sequestration is known as "bankruptcy" in England & Wales.

It is imperative that prior to Sequestration you seek advice; sometimes another option may be better suited to your situation such as LILA or Protected Trust Deed.

The key advantages of Sequestration are:-

• Income and benefits will be your to keep
• Your creditors will no longer be able to pursue you or take action against you to recover what you owe
• You will not have to make further payments to your creditors BUT you will have to pay any surplus income to your Trustee
• You can Expert to be discharged after 3 years

With everything there are disadvantages. The disadvantages of Sequestration are:-

• If you acquire any money (wages and pension proceeds excluded) or property after the dates of your Sequestration and before the date of your discharge, you may have to surrender these to you Trustee.
• If you are in paid employment, you may have to make a regular contribution to more than one year.
• If you own any valuable assets (including endowment polices) these will have to be sold.
• It is deemed unlawful to incur credit of more than £500 whilst Sequestrated unless the lender is aware that you are an undischarged bankrupt.
• You are not allowed to start up or be in voled in the day-to-day management of a Limited company.
• You are not allowed to act as a member of Parliament and there are certain other restrictions, such as acting as a member of any school board or local council etc.
• Sequestration will be advertised in the Edinburgh Gazette and may be noted by credit referencing agencies.
• You may have difficulties in obtaining credit after your discharge.

Every one's individual situation differs and so does our advice. With a few simple questions we will be able to advise you on the best option to suit you.

If you would like to discuss Sequestration please do not hesitate to contact us.

Debt Management Plan

A Debt Management Plan is the same in Scotland as it is in England & Wales. It should be viewed as a short-term debt solution and is an informal arrangement with your creditors.

It is an ideal solution for someone who needs to reduce their monthly repayments in order to get their finances back on track. The Debt Management Process begins by assessing your income and expenditure - once this has been done it the becomes clear how much money you have "spare" each month to pay your creditors.

We then negotiate on your behalf with your creditors to accept a lower monthly payment. Once this has been done you pay your monthly payment to us and we then distribute it to your creditors on your behalf.

The advantages of a Debt Management Plan are:-

• Relives creditor pressure
• We manage your monthly payment therefore you pay one simple, affordable payment
• In many cases your interest can be frozen or reduced
• There are no penalties for cancelling the plan at anytime

If you feel that you would benefit from a Debt Management Plan or would like to discuss your options then please do not hesitate to contact us.

UNLICENSED DEBT COLLECTION COMPANY.........

Cowboys in the field of debt collection are renowned, but i have never actually come across one.........until today that is!

A member of Tenable Business Support Service called today about a problem with a debt collection company. They faxed me over this letter that they had recieved - quite frankly my 4 year old daughter could have been more creative in producing the letterhead! It had clearly just been produced using Clip Art in Microsoft Word.

The letter was very threatening - using lots of legal jargon, the content to someone not in the know looked quite plausible BUT one major floor - threatening to tell other customers of the debt! Now this is against the law!

Now my advice to the client was to call The Office of Fair Trading immediately as the letter does not state a Consumer Credit License number. This in itself is an offence BUT the company in question does not even hold one!

So........if you ever recieve a letter from a debt collection company and want to know whether they are legit - log onto the OFT website here to check.

If you would like to have an informal discussion about this post or anything else relating to business or debt please do not hesitate to contact me.

ALL IN A DAYS WORK.............

I have now been speaking with a company for 6 months, the owner of the business (sole-trader) still to this day cannot believe that we are still calling him to help him with his problems.............and the fact he hasn't paid us a penny.

Like you will have read all along through this blog - we offer a unique service and we pride ourselves on that fact! How many other companies would supply information for free?

The problem he had related to a CCJ - the petitioning creditor would not accept his offer to pay by installments and he was being threatened by County Court Bailiffs. Understandably he was worred. I printed off the forms he needed to fill in, filled in the forms and posted them to him for him to sign and take to the County Court.

He has now had the offer accepted and is happy that the worry and stress has been taken from him.

Problems won't go away, don't bury your head in the sand! If you need impartial, friendly advice on any issue relating to debt then call me!

PROTECT YOURSELF AGAINST BAD DEBTS...

The root cause of most businesses problems is non-payers. You do the work in good faith and then when it comes to payday the client disappears and ignores all invoices, calls and emails. The only way of getting the money in then is to start collection proceedings which can be costly.

With so many companies falling foul to this kind of business practice we have come up with a solution! Credit check the company before you carry out the work – you can then decide whether you believe them to be credit worthy or whether you will insist on upfront payment. It is irrelevant how long you have known them! In this economic climate everybody is at risk.

A company credit check will highlight a number of things such as:-

· Existing County Court Judgments (CCJ’s) and whether they are satisfied or unsatisfied
· Whether they have court proceedings currently against them
· If the directors have a history of opening and closing businesses
· Give you an up-to-date advisory credit limit.
· Give you a credit rating (scaled 0-100)

This service is quick and easy to use and only takes a couple of minutes. Once you are aware of your exposure, you can take the necessary steps to reduce it.

The costs are as follows:-

1 search £12.50
2 search £18.00
3+ searches £5.00 each search

Or if you plan on doing several in a month we are able to offer you unlimited checks for £20 per month (minimum term of 3 months)

In order to protect yourself all you need to do is call me on 0800 4 96 95 94 or EMAIL

N.B. The above prices are inclusive of VAT and credit card charges.

DISCONNECTION - DO YOU KNOW THE LAW?

With the current economic climate many people are suffering with arrears with their utility suppliers (gas, electricity, water). Many will be threatened with disconnection. This can be a very daunting time and many people may bury their head in the sand as they do not know who to turn to.

We understand the law surrounding disconnection and are happy to help whether your problem relates to business or individual arrears.

PURE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH PURE DEBT SOLUTIONS.......

In one of my previous blogs I let everyone know about a fantastic new concept which we were commencing – the Debt Management Company called Pure Financial Management. Pure Financial Management will be a trading style of Tenable Solutions Limited.

We are in the early stages of setting up this company so were astounded to find that we already had people calling us regarding it (or so we thought)...........

They were actually calling for a company called Pure Debt Solutions, a company based in Wales. Now the bizarre thing is these people claim to be customers of Pure Debt Solutions and say that they have been paying money to them for the last couple of months and now the phone line is dead therefore were calling Pure Financial Management as they believed we were the same company.

I have searched high and low on the internet and not come up with anything apart from an address! No website and certainly no phone number.

If you have come across this post as a customer of Pure Debt Solutions then my suggestion to you would be to firstly contact your creditors and ensure that your payments to them have been made accordingly and then to report the company to the OFT (Office of Fair Trading).

If you would like some friendly, impartial advice on your debts and where to turn please call Lucy on freephone 0800 4 96 95 94 or EMAIL.

IS THE SUN SHINING ON YOUR BUSINESS??

Why is it when the sun is shining all of your problems don’t seem half as bad?! But the reality is nothing will have changed, the letters and phone calls will still continue and bailiffs will still call. Life goes on even though the sun is shining.

So many businesses are struggling alone; it is all too easy to try and ignore what is happening and hope (and pray) that it goes away. The truth is it won’t go away unless you get help.

Many people are embarrassed to ask for help, pride stops them. They fear that people will judge them and their business that they have worked so try and sustain. Tenable Solutions are REAL people; we don’t sit in judgement as many of us have been there before. You will receive nothing but support from the moment you call. Like the old saying says – ‘a problem shared is a problem solved’!

Just some of the issues we can help you with:-

· HMRC problems – Tax & VAT
· Creditor Pressure – are you being harassed?
· CCJ’s – We offer a FREE helpline
· Protecting Assets - A director’s loan account does NOT give protection
· Bankruptcy – It is not the end!
· Debt collection – make sure you choose the right course of action

All our advice is given FREE OF CHARGE and without obligation. We work nationally therefore we can come to you at a time and place convenient or if you are local you can come to our offices situated in Wakefield, West Yorkshire.

You really don’t need to suffer alone, we can your stress away from the moment you call..........and then you can get back to enjoying the hot weather!

WANT TO SELL BUT CAN'T AFFORD TO?? THINK AGAIN.........

The credit crunch looms and more people are forced to TRY and sell either their business or their home; this maybe to release equity or even just to minimise expenses. There is often one snag – the fact that you have to pay out unaffordable amounts to advertise your house / business. This leaves many people getting further into debt in the hope that they will recoup it after the sale. There is now another answer.......why not do it for FREE?

Montague Lloyd are basically cutting out the middle man hence being able to offer you the service FREE OF CHARGE!

You decide exactly what you want to put; you do this in your words and you can even add images – you can also decide how you wish to be contacted by prospective buyers. The interested parties will then contact YOU direct and you can arrange an appointment at a time to suit you.

This will save you thousands! Which in this day in age can you afford not to?!

ARE YOU BEING BULLIED DOWN THE INSOLVANCY ROUTE?

So many of our customers come to us for a second opinion. Generally the first lot of advice they receive steers them down the route of insolvency, this is normally because of the lucrative fees the company can make out of them! They have no morals in finding the correct solution to the persons problems and all they see is pound signs!

We differ because we look at things from a different perspective. For example only a small percentage (around 2%) of customers who call us end up in a CVA.

Our advice doesn’t cost you anything and you are not obliged to act upon any advice given. We excel as a company because customer service is paramount, we will always be honest and ethical in our advice.

So, if you would like a second opinion on any advice you have received contact me today:

THE FUTURE'S BRIGHT.........THE FUTURE IS PURE!

Due to increasing demand Tenable Solutions Limited have recently launched their own brand of debt management under the name of PURE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT.

A lot of our clients have informed us that they have received bad service from various different debt management companies. We therefore decided that there was a niche in the market for a company who is entirely customer focused. All our staff are implicitly trained and customer service is paramount.

PURE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT can help you if, as many people are in this day in age, are struggling to meet the minimum repayments on credit cards, loans, catalogues and store cards. A debt management plan is an informal agreement between you and your creditors. With one simple call all your worry and pressure can be taken away as PURE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT negotiate with creditors on your behalf.

They liaise with all your creditors – asking them to freeze interest and to accept a lower monthly payment. You will also be assigned your own personal account manager who will be on hand to answer any questions you may have. You will pay one monthly amount and PURE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT will distribute this between your creditors.

If you would like to learn more about PURE FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT then you can call me on freephone 0800 4 96 95 94 or EMAIL.

Remember, no matter what your worries are – there is always a solution!

COMMERCIAL TENANTS CAN NOW FIGHT THE RECESSION!

I am sure if you take a trip down your high street you will see numerous shops shut down with “to let” signs outside. Not since the recession of the early 1990’s have we seen as many retail casualties; Reduction in overall sales / profits mirrored with over-inflated rents mean more tenants are closing their doors, independent retailers seeing the heaviest fall in sales. It is anticipated that things will only worsen as consumer spending collapses further and there will be several years of negative rental growth.

The booming property market has brought about long leases with infrequent or upward-only reviews and this leaves many tenants either “sweating it out” or shutting up shop. There is now an answer for those tenants who find themselves in this position.

We specialise in rental reformulation and lease restructuring. We have a highly skilled team who have a proven track record in mediating on behalf of tenants with a genuine need for improved lease terms. We have a wide understanding of landlord / tenant issues and try to benefit all parties by avoiding tenants facing financial crises and landlords with empty units that they are unable to fill! We exhibit genuine needs for tenants to improve their terms during this period of uncertainty and present undeniable cases to landlords on behalf of those tenants.

If you feel that you would like further guidance on this issue please do not hesitate to contact me.

ARE YOU GETTING THE CORRECT ADVICE???

I am astounded by the conversation i have just had. A client who was looking at bankruptcy had been advised by someone to sell his property and his car to his father for £1 before booking his hearing in order to protect his assets.

How irresponsible and incorrect is that? The Official Reciever would pick up on thsi straight away!!

If you are struggling and feel bankruptcy is the only option - why not get the correct advice?!?

Call me on freephone 0800 4 96 95 94 or Email

WHAT MAKES US SO FANTASTIC?!?!?

If your company is struggling I am sure you will have received lots of communication from various companies offering their services to help you. We like to think that we are different from other companies within our industry; firstly the biggest difference is we work for YOU and not on the behalf of anyone you owe money to. Your situation will be fully and professionally assessed without necessarily proposing an IVA/CVA or bankruptcy. We look to find a solution that suits your individual situation, not one that automatically takes you down the road of insolvency.

We excel as a company because we look at your situation from a different perspective, have those bailiffs acted within the law? Is that finance agreement unenforceable? Are those charges fair? Is that CCJ genuine or can it be set aside? Who owes you money? Once we have the answers we can advise you what your next step should be and look at formulating a plan. Regardless of the situation you find yourself in YOU are still in control of YOUR business. We will not bamboozle you with insolvency jargon; we speak in a language that you will understand.

We understand that it can be quite daunting when you realise your business is experiencing financial difficulties, especially when you have worked hard to try and make your business succeed. Creditors can be quite fickle at times; just when you think you have a payment plan they issue a CCJ without warning, putting all your other payment plans in jeopardy. Acting quickly on these matters is the key to both success & survival.

Listed below are just some of the issues we can help you with:-

· HMRC problems – have you been compliant?
· Creditor pressure – are you being harassed?
· CCJ’s – we offer a free helpline / free advice.
· Protecting assets – a director’s loan account does NOT give protection.
· Winding-Up Petitions / Orders – we offer a free helpline / free advice.
· Bankruptcy – we offer a free helpline / free advice
· Debt Collection – make sure you choose the right course of action

With combined experience of over 60 years, we have a wealth of knowledge and expertise that can help you overcome any hurdles in your way.

ARE YOUR COMPANIES ASSETS PROTECTED?? IF YOU HAVE A DIRECTORS LOAN ACCOUNT THEY PROBABLY AREN'T!

Did you know that a Directors Loan Account does NOT give protection to your assets if your company fails? A lot of people don’t know this and are under the pretence that they are covered. If you have a Directors Loan Account and your company fails you will just be treated like any other unsecured creditor and as such cannot give yourself preferential treatment!

If you would like to learn more about protecting your assets then give me a call.

WINDING-UP PETITIONS! IT ISN'T THE END!

Today i have been advising someone who had recieved a Winding-Up Petition from the court. Obviously when they recieved it they were panic stricken; problems had been building up over the last 6 months and they had been burying their heads in the sands and trying to keep their heads aflot by "robbing Peter to pay Paul" - only trouble was "Peter" had run out of money!

A creditor had finally had enough and decided to issue a Winding-Up Petition.
