don't really like to talk about this but I am in a mess as in worrying and fretting all night.
I have 4 catalogues and i owe a lot on all of them and I am only just managing to make the minimum payment they are asking for. But this month one of them wants £160 how the blooming heck do I get that amount together!!
I keep forgetting that when you order you should really wait till they have been credited before ordering larger or smaller size
So now what do I do I am behind with the water payments because i used the money to pay the clothes catalogue.I order from them because there is no other way I can buy clothes for me and the kids (I am a single mum) I can't work as I have Fibromyalgia so what do I do?do I stuggle on as I am making myself more and more ill worrying about it.........i feel so down and bad about it sorry to trouble you all..

call teh catalogues and inform them that you need to make a smaller repayment.
if it is just a timing error and youhave actually sent goods back and are simply waiting for themt o be credited you dont actually owe the £160 at all.

the catalogue will surely sort something for you. once they have throw the cat in the bin.

Call them, explain - they don't want the hassle of pursuing you and writing expensive letters. They should be ok. Honest.
