Scottish Trust Deed

is a website offering debt help in Scotland for those who are struggling with their unaffordable debt repayments.

Established in 2009, the aim of  Scottish Trust Deed was to help individuals who were in a black hole with their debts by negotiating with their creditors and bring them back to financial stability. It was originally owned by Simple Financial Solutions Limited before it was acquired by Paloma Digital Limited in 2015. Harper McDermott, the leading Trust Deed provider in Scotland acquired the Scottish Trust Deed brand in late 2023.

Scottishtrustdeed.co.uk is now a trading style of Harper McDermott Ltd who offer multiple types of debt solutions, advice and assistance.

Scottishtrustdeed.co.uk prides itself on its customer service which shows in our TrustPilot reviews, and not only offers advice on the most common debt solutions but can also help with more specific advice such as council tax debts, mortgage arrears, and how to deal with debt collectors and bailiffs through its knowledge hub.

As I was drowning financially & done my research I decided the best solution was to go into a Trust Deed. My Advisor, Gemma was amazing & a great support at a difficult time while going through my debt resolving options thoroughly. Gemma was so helpful from start to finish, keeping me in the loop at all times. I feel like a weight has been lifted & I can sleep at night. Thank you so much again Gemma.

From the 1st my phone call with Jason applyard was when I knew I was going to take control of my debt in the right way. He made me feel as ease within the first 10 minutes of the phone call. He explained everything straight forward and keep me informed each step of the way!  I feel like I've a weight lifted off my shoulders knowing I'm going to have 1 payment going out a month, instead of countless payments. I'd definitely recommend trust deed scotland to help you clear of your debt once and for all. The 1st phone you'll see it was the right decision. Thanks so much Jason

Experienced Debt Advisers

Scottishtrustdeed.co.uk provide help and advice to people on the most common debt solutions such as;

• Scottish Trust Deeds
• Debt Arrangement Schemes
• Minimal Asset Process
• Bankruptcy (Sequestration)

But we can also provide advice on informal debt solutions such as Debt Management Plans.

The most common debt solution is a Scottish Trust Deed and to qualify for one of these you must meet the following criteria;

• Owe at least £5,000 in unsecured debts
  (this can be made up of store cards, credit cards, unsecured loans, catalogue debts, council tax debts or benefit over-payments. We cannot service secured debts such as secured loans or hire purchase agreements. If you have a mix of secured and unsecured debt, you can still apply, you would need to be able to continue paying your secured debts as arranged)
• Owe money to at least 2 creditors
• Be able to make a monthly contribution of at least £100 per month towards your debt
• You must live in Scotland as a resident for at least the last 6 months

If you don’t meet one of these criteria you will fall into the category for either a Debt Arrangement Scheme, Minimal Asset Process, or as a last resort, Bankruptcy (also known as Sequestration in Scotland).
