Trust Deed Explained
What is a Trust Deed?
A Trust Deed is a legally binding debt service between you and your creditors and is regulated by the Bankruptcy (Scotland) Act 1985 (as amended) which benefits both you and your creditors.
Depending upon your circumstances with a Trust Deed from Debt Advisory Line you benefit from a comprehensive debt service including:
- Up to 90% of your outstanding debt written off.
- Get this debt help and be debt free within 36 months.
- All interest and charges on your debts will be frozen.
- You will be protected from further court action once your Trust Deed has been protected.
- All contact from your creditors will be dealt with on your behalf by your Trustee.
- Your monthly contribution is based on what you can realistically afford.
- Trust Deeds (and sequestrations) will not be published in your local newspaper.
- It will not affect you job in any way i.e. if you are a police officer or in the armed forces. *(subject to contract)
- Trust Deeds are more flexible, less restrictive and generally cost less to administer than sequestration.
- You can re-mortgage whilst under a Trust Deed.
After the term of the Trust Deed the remainder of the debts are effectively written off leaving you debt free usually within three years.
A Trust Deed is a legally binding agreement between you and your creditors. It is regulated by The Bankruptcy (Scotland) Act 1985 (as amended) and offers a less formal and restrictive alterative to sequestration (bankruptcy) - particularly if you are a home owner or joint home owner.
