Help with banking

Are you falling behind with payments of rent, council tax or utility bills? Are you struggling to manage your Universal Credit payment?

Our Money Advice Team can help you in a number of ways:

 

Budgeting

 

We can help you produce an in-depth budget sheet, looking at all your income, essential bills, other outgoings and debts. This shows you in detail what you are spending.

 

The Money Advisor can also help you set up standing order and direct debits so managing your money is easier.

 

 

Income maximisation

• Having money paid into an account is safer and you will receive your money quicker.
• If you are looking for work or are in employment, most employers insist on paying wages into an account
• You can save money by paying your bills through your account
• You can keep track of how much you are spending through receiving regular statements or you can access online banking using mobile apps
• Soon all benefits will have to be paid into a bank account as part of Universal Credit.
