She is here ladies, but thankfully pays scant attention to my postings.

I may otherwise be having boiled socks for my next few dinners.......

Or perhaps something else that rhymes with socks!!!

By the way you have been very quiet about Man United this week. Any particular reason?

Rhymes with socks, whatever can you mean????

As for the mighty reds, well I am far too busy at the moment arguing with smug City fans to have the energy to do anything else.

Rest assured though, that I expect normal service to be resumed this season and I am very keen for Utd to retain the title above all else this year, as 4 in a row has never been done before as far as I am aware.

Regards.

Hello,

This thread has been brought to my attention and thought it would be a good idea to join the site and discuss this matter and balance out the advice on offer.

The Consumer Credit Counselling Service does not advise people to have their animals ‘put down’. We do understand that animals are often a part of the family and this can be a sensitive subject when discussing costs.

The CCCS guidelines are often reviewed to make sure that the costs represent an average across the UK. The guidelines are based on the figures set out by the British Banking Association and Money Advice Trust.

I will be a regular on the board so if you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Kind Regards
CCCS Counsellor

Good to see someone from the CCCS on the site and you may be able to provide clarification for a number of clients particularly concerning income and expenditure accounts. I would be interested to know how often the guidelines are reviewed and when are they next up for discussion?

I concur that it is nice to have a representative from CCCS on here, and as such I wonder if CCCS Counsellor would have a look at this thread http://www.iva.co.uk/forum/topic.asp?wh ... _ID=225793 and comment on it?

Regards.

A very warm welcome to the forum from me as well - your firm are often the subject of one-sided criticism here from existing clients, so it great that you are now here - albeit under an anonymous name - to be able to deal these issues directly.
