Two columns compared. Where I am now: I don't know where to turn with too many debts, on a base reading I was once debt free. What debt solutions can do for you: more manageable monthly payments; a clear plan for dealing with your debts; payments based on what you can afford; less pressure from juggling multiple debts; help communicating with creditors; a clearer picture of your finances; and professional support and guidance.

We explain the features of each debt solution, including the benefits and risks. Every conversation is confidential and without obligation, giving you the space to make an informed decision in your own time. No fee is charged for the initial advice. Fees apply if you enter a debt solution with us and will affect your credit rating. Some solutions may result in debt write-off.

Rated 5 out of 5

I had the best experience speaking to Rachel the other day. She made what was quite an anxiety inducing and worrisome conversation so easy and streamlined. Honestly, if you’re at a point where you are struggling and you need help, this is the place I would recommend.

Josh Tyers

I contacted The Debt Advisor as I was worried about unsecured debt and struggling with repayments. Andrew guided me sympathetically and professionally throughout the whole process with a full explanation of the options I had so I could make an informed choice.

Frequently asked questions

What happens after I fill in the form?

Our team will call you to build a complete picture of your income, spending and debts. This conversation is completely confidential, and there is no obligation to proceed.

How soon will you contact me?

If you complete the form during office hours, we’ll usually call you the same day for a confidential chat. We’ll help you review your debts and budget and explain the debt solutions that may be suitable for your circumstances. You can also call us on 0161 532 2926 or email info@thedebtadvisor.hubsolv.com.

Is my initial advice free?

Yes. There is no fee to talk to us initially, but fees will apply if you enter a solution with us. There’s no obligation to proceed. We’ll take the time needed to understand your situation properly, explain your options and answer any questions you have, there’s no rush.

If you choose a solution, fees will apply and will be explained clearly before you proceed. IVA fees are normally agreed as part of the arrangement and paid from the contributions you make into your IVA. You can also access free and impartial debt advice from the Government’s MoneyHelper service.

Is The Debt Advisor regulated?

Yes. The Debt Advisor Ltd is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority to provide debt advice and administer certain debt solutions.

Will a debt solution affect my credit rating?

Yes, most debt solutions will have a negative impact on your credit file and will be recorded for six years. However, if you’re already behind on payments or struggling with debt, your credit score may already be affected. A solution can help you take control and work towards rebuilding your credit over time.

Will a debt solution affect my job?

In most cases, no. However, an IVA or other formal debt solution may affect certain jobs, particularly in finance, law or roles requiring security clearance. If you’re unsure, check your employment contract or speak to your HR department.

What is the difference between unsecured and secured debt?

Unsecured debt is money you owe that isn’t secured against an asset, such as credit cards, personal loans and overdrafts. Secured debt is linked to an asset, such as your home or car, which may be at risk if you don’t keep up with repayments. Most formal debt solutions mainly deal with unsecured debts.

Important information

The Debt Advisor is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. This means we can provide debt advice and administer both formal and informal debt solutions for individuals and business owners. No fee is charged for initial advice. However, we are a commercial organisation and if you choose a solution we provide, fees will apply and will be clearly explained to you.

We will talk you through all the solutions available in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. This includes solutions like Individual Voluntary Arrangements (IVAs), Bankruptcy, Debt Relief Orders, Debt Management Plans, and Debt Consolidation (subject to eligibility), to help you understand which may be most suitable for your circumstances. If you live in Scotland, different solutions apply, please visit Scottish Debt Solutions.

All debt solutions should be very carefully considered. You may fall into arrears, or incur further arrears, while we are negotiating reduced payments with your creditors, as you will not be maintaining your contractual payments. Payments made to creditors under a Debt Management Plan with The Debt Advisor are distributed within five working days. Payments made into an IVA are distributed in line with the terms of the proposal. If you enter an IVA, Debt Relief Order or Bankruptcy, your personal information will appear on the Insolvency Register, which is searchable by the public.
