Debt service seeing past clients return

Organisation urging anyone in difficulty to 'seek help early'

Over 100 people have returned to the Office of Fair Trade for debt advice in the last two quarters.

That's according to the head of the OFT. 

John Peet told Manx Radio in the last two terms, they've seen over 70 people in each quarter return to the organisation. 

He's urging people, who are facing financial difficulties, to 'seek help early'. 

Mr Peet says due to the rising cost of living, they thought they would see newer clients but it hasn't happened:

 

The OFT has introduced a weekly drop-in clinic in Peel every Wednesday at the Wellbeing Centre from 9.30am until 11.30am to help people seeking help.
