Most people incur debt throughout their lifetime. Lending and borrowing are part and parcel of the modern economy – it’s only when you can’t pay back your debts that they become a problem.
There are many different types of debt, and listed here are some of the most common.
Manageable debts that can comfortably pay back over an agreed period are often a necessary part of life. But when debts become unmanageable, they becomes a problem. There are many ways debts can suddenly become unmanageable:-
- Redundancy
- Cut in hours
- Unemployment
- Illness, especially for the self-employed
- Unexpected costs such as unexpected home repairs

I cannot thank Bennett Jones enough. I had a lot of debt and couldn’t see a way out. It was beginning to impact on my mental health....... I finished the process today and it was approved, and I honestly feel so much relief that I cried down the phone because I am so thankful. Words will never be enough to say how grateful and thankful I am but one thing I know for sure is that I can start my life again without worrying about money and the debt. Thank you so much for everything!
