Nearly there now, My experience so far.
My experience with Harper McDermott,
Well to prefix you all I've been paying into the payment plan since October 2023 and should be free and clear in August all going well.
Just can't be more grateful for the service they have provided me.
Unfortunately things went south financially fairly quickly through ill health at the end of 2022, 1 surgery and a few months recovery later I found myself in damn near £9000 in debt to various lenders/credit cards etc with limited means to repay the debt I'd accrued.
I found myself down a hole, I was paying more out each week than what was coming in to try and make ends meet and still missing payments. I genuinely regretted surviving my illness at one point heading into depression and knew I needed help.
Looking back I was so ashamed to ask for help and just kept puting myself down, I'm a grown man with a family to keep FFS.
I found a way to swallow that pride to ask for help and quickly learned there was no need for the shame I felt or the pride I had to be "swallowed", From the start Harper McDermott have been brilliant.
We talked through my finances, no judgements made, they really just wanting to help you, I sent a few bills and the like through to them confirming my debt and my income vs outgoings and worked out a plan that worked for me. No more chasing interest that just keeps accruing, No more threat letters, No more anxiety when I hear the letterbox go, No more feeling that my family would be better off if I'd have just died.
It is just one repayment plan in place which was means tested to ensure I could afford the repayments. I can't recommend them highly enough so am recommending them to anyone reading this who needs the help I so badly needed, You can get your life back on track, just make the call and good luck to you going forward.

Hello,
Thanks for taking the time to come back and share your experience with Harper McDermott & Trust Deed Scotland® - we really appreciate the review!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It’s incredibly brave of you to speak so openly about such a difficult time, and your story will no doubt resonate with many others who might be feeling the same way you once did.
We’re truly sorry to hear about the challenges you faced after your illness, and we’re so glad you found the strength to reach out for support when things felt overwhelming. It’s not easy to ask for help, especially when pride and worry get in the way but you did, and that’s something to be really proud of.
It means a lot to us to hear that our team could be there for you during that time. We know from speaking with both Laura in our customer services team recently and Matthew in the debt advice team originally that they were delighted to be part of your journey.
Helping you find a solution that felt manageable and fair was their top priority, and it’s heartening to know that the plan has brought you peace of mind and stability.
You're getting close to that final repayment in August, and that’s a huge achievement. One you’ve earned through perseverance and courage. We hope you’re starting to feel a sense of freedom and control returning to your life, and we’re so grateful to have played a small part in helping you get there.
Thank you again for your kind words and for recommending us. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if we can help in any way going forward. Wishing you and your family all the very best.
Kind regards,
Harper McDermott & Trust Deed Scotland®
