PJ Debt Advice Service

As we frequently hear on the media, personal debt is increasing all the time and many people are getting into difficulties. For that reason, Pip n Jims have launched P & J Debt Advice Service to provide free and confidential help and advice to anyone with concerns about money and debt.

It may be that you (or someone you know) are not in serious debt but struggling with budgeting and making ends meet and could just do with talking things through with someone. We won't pretend there are always easy answers but will listen, help you prepare a budget if you want us to, and make any suggestions we think might be helpful.

Or it could be that things are more serious than that and you have large debts which you are no longer able to service. Maybe you are being hassled by creditors and threatened with court action, or have received a county court summons. In such cases we can provide more active assistance, such as negotiating arrangements with creditors on your behalf and assisting with responding to a court claim.

We promise that if you approach P & J Debt Advice you will not be judged. People get into debt and financial difficulty for all sorts of reasons, which are in many cases no fault of their own. We understand the distress that money and debt problems can cause and that is why we want to help. We'll start from where you are now and try to help you find the way through whatever situation you are facing.
