The following is a note from a person who used the MABS service in Charleville, Co. Cork (May 2006):

Just over twelve months ago I put my pride in my pocket and walked into my local Money Advice and Budgeting Service in Charleville, Co. Cork .

I was getting deeper and deeper in debt and felt I could not go on - my mortgage was in arrears, my car repayments were in arrears, credit cards out of control and over their limit, ESB and phone bills not paid, bank overdraft and Credit Union loan in arrears and even though I was working hard and earning good wages, I could not manage to clear the arrears and pay the cur­ rent commitments.

In the MABS office, I was met with sympathy and understanding and felt comfortable enough to be honest and explain my situa­ tion to the Money Adviser in their office.

The Money Adviser studied my financial situation and offered to write to all my creditors and offer them a repayment plan, which thankfully was accepted.

I am happy to say that twelve months on, I have managed to keep up the repayment plan and most of my arrears are well on the way to being cleared. I can now see light at the end of the tunnel and it is such a relief to go home in the evenings and not have to face threatening letters from financial institutions.

I have complete confidence in the Money Advice and Budgeting Service and highly recommend them to anyone in financial diffi­ culty.

I could not have done it without them and am so grateful that there is such a wonderful, free service available.
