Did you know that you can get financial advice for free? Thats right, you don't need the expensive services of a financial planner when you're re-working your finances. The Citizens Advice Bureau offer free financial advice through their volunteer network, so even here in the City of London it is possible to avoid those big bills. If you need advice about your loans and credit cards, or have problems meeting repayments, you can contact them and they will do their best to help you out.
The first thing to do is visit their website and download some factsheets, from there you can make an appointment to meet one of their staff at a branch near you.

Credit and Loan Agreements
Most people I know in London have massive amounts of debt. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, it is just a facet of modern living. If you want any kind of career these days you have to get an education, and they don't come cheap. So starting out with student loans and progressing quickly on to credit cards to pay for your studies leaves most people (those without rich parents) with a hefty bill to be paid off in adult life. I have been looking at re-structuring some of my debt to make it more cost effective, and was pleasantly surprised by the level of assistance offered by the UK government, especially their 'Money Made Clear' website.
