MABS & Debt Advice

On this page you will find useful resources and information about what to do if you are struggling financially or falling behind on loan or other debt payments.

Struggling with Loan Repayments or Other Debts?

If you are behind on payments, struggling to repay a loan or finding it difficult to keep on top of bills and other debts, please do not ignore the problem.

It can be tempting to put money worries to the back of your mind, but speaking about it early is always better than letting it build up. Your first step is to contact our Credit Control Officer here in Naomh Breandan Credit Union if you find yourself in financial difficulty or unable to meet loan repayments.
