From the very start right through to the approval of my IVA, this company have been amazing. I feel like a massive weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I can’t thank them enough. They took care of everything for me so I didn’t have to do anything myself. I would have no doubts recommending to anyone

Mcduffy made the whole process really…er

Mcduffy made the whole process really easy. My sister had already used them previously. I wasn't sure what to expect but they went through the whole process with me step by step. The only thing I'm not sure about is when there is a change in my circumstances what I need to do, do they review it yearly.

Absolutely Fantastic!!! Can’t praise them enough!!!

McCambridge Duffy were absolutely amazing!! They were so friendly, professional and helpful, they immediately put me at ease and made the whole process so much easier than I thought it would be. I was very worried about getting the IVA and asked so many questions, and they were so friendly and helpful with their answers and really explained everything so well, they really were fantastic and I’m just so happy I found them!! It feels like such a huge weight has been lifted and I can never thank them enough. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them, they really are so understanding, knowledgeable and kind, they’ve changed our lives and I will always be so grateful.

Look no further

I can't praise this company and Michael enough. I've never been in debt before, never missed a payment on anything in my life. After my divorce, I was treading water most months and needed help. The effect this can have on you mentally is tremendous and so you really need to speak to the right people to get help. People who aren't just trying to make money from your situation. With this company, you speak to real people with real empathy regarding your situation.

I've banked with Barclays for over 30 years and the way they were with me when I spoke to them was a disgrace.

When I 1st spoke to Michael it was truly a breath of fresh air. So much empathy and warmth. Nothing robotic or reading from a script. When I got off the phone with him I felt reassured that he was going to help me out of this one way or another. During the whole process, he kept in touch with me either by phone or by email. Just amazing customer service, professionalism, empathy, and incredibly down to earth.

I honestly feel that without Michael and this company, I'd still be stressed, and worried about who's calling me, what letter they'll send next and still struggling to see a way out.

I'd recommend them to anyone who needs help. You'll notice a clear difference between these guys and the rest, as soon as you speak to them.

After making contact through the advertisement and checking I could possibly get an iva the process was quick and easy. I talked my situation through with an adviser who was very helpful and understanding and adviced me of my options I agreed an iva was my best solution, I then left the company to sort out the iva on my behalf and it was excepted by my creditors. I'm happy to say the process was extremely easy and put my mind at rest .

I can't rate McCambridge Duffy ( especially my case manager Michael Peoples) highly enough, after changing a 20 year long career and starting own business which started well and didn't go to plan, I ended up in debt and makimg more debt to clear debt, then when I realised all my personal savings were gone my income wasnt keeping up with the debt let alone living costs. I had no idea what to do then got recommended to try for IVA I tried a big name company that's always on national radio and TV adverts, ( Credit Fix) 2-3 hours in the phone with them and kept getting passed around different people then never heard back, they didn't seem too bothered to help, so after a google search came across McCambridge Duffy and so glad I did, after initial 20 min call doing income expenditure I was then booked in for official call with Michael which lasted 1 hour, after this I literally had nothing else to do apart from let my creditors know I was going through an IVA which was set for just under 4 weeks time.
I got accepted by all creditors, Michael was hugely helpful and was 100% concerned we definitely were left with enough money monthly to still live.
My Anxiety that I had never ever suffered or experienced untill I realised all my savings had gone, debt had gone up and up and I wasn't managing has now gone and I feel a 2nd lease of live. Thanks Michael and team at McCambridge Duffy

My impossible situation was sorted out brilliantly!

When I unexpectedly lost 75% of my income, I was distraught because over the years I’d amassed six figures worth of debt and didn’t know where to turn.

Thankfully I found McCambridge Duffy, in particular I found Michael Peoples who has changed my life forever!

I explained the desperate situation I was in and he calmly explained my options. We had a long conversation and he agreed to draft an IVA proposal for me. He was totally understanding and non-judgemental and he said he would do everything he possibly could to sort out my problems.

Within 3 hours of our call the proposal was sent through to me, which I immediately signed electronically. The following day the meeting of creditors was called (for 16 days later).

I had a stressful couple of weeks because my proposal seemed impossible for creditors to agree to - at least to me, but Michael assured me they would never put something together that was unacceptable to creditors or unachievable for me. The return for them was only 8p in the £ and the entire IVA would be completed in just 11 months as I was offering some money in my full and final proposal.

My meeting was yesterday at 2pm but at 11am I received a call from Emma in the creditors meeting team who was genuinely excited to tell me the news that 100% of the creditors who voted on the proposal had agreed to it and that I’d already passed the 75% success threshold that was required.

As you can imagine I was overwhelmed with relief and so grateful that I’d discovered the excellent team at McCambridge Duffy.

I write this detailed review because I searched the web for help and if I’d seen this beforehand it would have pointed me in the right direction sooner.

If you’re in a situation like I was, I urge you to call MCD who will work tirelessly to help you sort out your situation, I doubt it could be worse than mine was. I hope this genuine and honest review helps others and I cannot thank the team at McCambridge Duffy enough.

Michael Peoples is a hero, and all the team including Chris who I first spoke to, and Emma who gave me the life changing news yesterday, are the very best you could ever wish to talk to.

Thank you McCambridge Duffy for everything,
