credit card debt

I have had significant credit card debt taken over by the PRA group. They have been extremely patient & flexible for four years. I have changed my repayment plan several times and get payment holidays on request. Very responsive even by text. It’s not a pleasant situation to be in debt but who owns your debt makes a big difference. Far less intimidating or pressurising than my own bank in which I’ve been a client for 30 years

One late payment and you have to start again

I like the fact that they are willing to except a payment plan that is comfortable for you, but you miss a payment date, and pay it the next day, your plan is cancelled and you have to set up another, that's ridiculous, sometimes we all mis calculate a little

The PRA group have been amazing with helping me to manage my debt. They are always incredibly helpful on the phone, polite and trustworthy. I was absolutely terrified to set up a payment plan initially but my mind was put to rest as soon as I got in contact with the PRA group. They are extremely flexible on repayments and always want to ensure you have enough money to pay your rent/mortgage, bills and other expenses before you make any repayments with them. I’d like to give a special mention to Raj who spoke to me today during my 6 month telephone review who could not have been more supportive, understanding and accommodating. Thank you very much Raj.

Amazing staff . Very pleased with sue


I spoke to a lovely lady called sue today from the PRA group with the most lovely Aussie accent. I was called about a credit card debt I had missed a few payments on due to loosing my job due to ill health. Sue was nothing but understanding and helpful and made me feel so safe and comfortable when talking to her . Sue helped me come to a resolution for my debt and there was no pressure or judgment whatsoever. I had been putting off answering the call for a while as I suffer with anxiety and don’t like talking to new people but today I decided to answer and i don’t think I could’ve wished for anyone else to ring me but sue. What a real gem she is , an absolute credit to your company and I hope she gets the recognition she deserves.

So helpful and understanding

I spoke to PRA Group today regarding an old debt and I had been putting off contacting them for months. I spoke to an amazing lady named Sue who was genuinely so patient and understanding, I was so grateful to her by the end of the call. The company have helped me to make a plan moving forward with my debt and there was no pressure or judgment at all. I hope Sue gets the recognition she deserves for helping me today and thanks again
