About Us

Who are we?

Debt Advice Blackpool is a Free Debt Advice service. It was set up by local financial services professionals, to deal with the growing number of enquiries from normal people who are suffering at the hands of the credit crunch.

We know that in the majority of cases, your current debt problems have been caused by situations beyond your control, and is not your fault. Whatever the reason, we are here to help. With over 20 years of experience in Banking and Financial Services, we bring our knowledge and professionalism together, to provide Independent Debt Advice to make sure that you are able to follow the right course of action in dealing with your debts.

Why choose us?

We know there are many companies out there advertising that they can wipe off 70% of your debt. It´s in the papers, on TV, on the radio. As a rule, these types of Debt Help companies are geared up to sell you one solution only, and will not usually be interested in looking at all options available to you. And yes, it is feasible that those schemes being advertised may be suitable for you. However, there are other options available which may clear off more of your debt, or may clear your debt quicker.

You also need to be aware that, as a rule, IVA companies and Debt Management Companies are usually working under guidelines or rules which favour the lender. Indeed, IVA practitioners have a duty of responsibility to the Lenders. So it’s important to get Independent Holistic Debt Advice, to look at all the options, and whether they are suitable for you. That way, you can make sure that the route you take is correct.

Why are we different?

• We are Independent. We have no bias towards any particular Debt Solution.
• We are local.
• We offer confidential home visits to review your circumstances.
• We will give a free one hour consultation.
• We will then advise on the best course of action based on what’s right for you, not what is right for the Lenders.
• We will recommend a reputable insolvency practitioner or debt management company, should it be appropriate.
• We can offer assistance in completing bankruptcy documentation, if appropriate.
• We can offer more in depth services, such as accompanied court appearances, negotiations with lenders, property repossession assistance, tailored personal debt plans, where appropriate.
• We will work in partnership with your professional advisors such as your financial advisor, mortgage broker, solicitor or accountant because we know that sometimes they know more about your affairs than you do.

So, now you’ve seen how we can help, the next step is to provide us with some background information, and arrange your free home visit.
