Mrs Smith was focussed on her daughter’s future
Mrs Smith was going through a lot: police interviews, an ongoing court case involving her ex-partner, and counselling to help her cope with this intimidating process. With everything happening, she had to give up work. But with her 4 year old daughter about to start school, her little girl’s future was her focus.
So she got in touch for some support from us
Mrs Smith called our Financial Assist Customer Support Team. She told us that she was planning to start working soon. She was getting help with her benefits which had replaced the child support that her ex-partner had stopped paying.
How we helped Mrs Smith
As she’d missed some of her loan payments, we discussed the different options that were available and what they could mean for her credit rating. Her main worry was her account being closed because she hadn’t made her payments, as this would affect her credit file for 6 years. But with money now coming in from her benefits, we were able to set up a repayment plan that Mrs Smith could afford to clear her arrears, so this didn’t happen.
