Thousands of customers using Egg credit cards have suffered problems using their card to pay bills due to a glitch on the internet. Many people have to rely on their credit cards to pay monthly bills and for those using Eggs credit cards for the last 6 weeks they have been left high and dry. This may have seen many fall into arrears with payments and fall behind on their bills and into debt.

Using credit cards to pay bills is commonplace and this adds onto the debt accumulated on credit cards each month, which some then struggle to pay each month. If you have fallen into debt with credit card repayments, or indeed any form of unsecured debt then you need to give some thought to a debt management plan.

When taking out a debt management plan your debt team will work with you to get your creditors to agree to you repaying your debts over a certain period. You then have just one monthly sum of money to pay, which your debt management team spreads out for you to your creditors. If you stick with the debt management plan, you are able to clear your debts by the end of the plan and be debt free. You might also wish to take iva advice, depending on the amount of debt you owe.
