Default Watchdog shuts down debt websites
This story caught my eye on the BBC website particularly in the current climate. I know people who've been caught by these debt management companies who promise the earth and never deliver.

BBC NEWS | Business | Watchdog shuts down debt websites

This post is really just a reminder that you can get this type of advice free without using these companies and if it stops one person using them then it'll be worth it.
