Negotiating With Creditors


1999
During the year on-going contact was made with creditors in connection with client accounts. In all, there were on average 10 phone and letter contacts with creditors on behalf of each client (2,299 in all). We also held 7 face-to-face meetings with creditors, in cases of particular difficulty.

In a number of cases, we successfully intervene with creditors where they were threatening disconnections, evictions or legal action to recover debts.

Meetings were also held with creditors to discuss policy issues and the role of Kildare Money Advice.
