Paying for the basics is pushing people into debt, charity says
By Kevin PeacheyCost of living correspondent
People are slipping further into Debt to pay for basics Like rent and bills, Citizens Advice has warned.
Half of The Charity 's Debt assessment clients have a negative budget - Meaning they are left in the red after paying for essentials. This Was up from 36% in early 2019, it said.
Groups who rarely asked The Charity for help, Like homeowners and pensioners, were now seeking Debt advice, it said.
One father-of-four told The Bbc he was " forever chasing a never-ending Debt ".
The soaring cost of living seems to be changing the nature of problem Debt . Whereas once ballooning credit card bills were The Norm , now more and more people face long-term financial issues because they do not have enough for the basics such as heating, food and council tax bills.
Dame Clare Moriarty , chief executive of Citizens Advice , said: " With costs skyrocketing, We Are seeing people who are saddled with Debt sinking further into hardship. More people are seeking Debt support who have never had to turn to us before - Like homeowners who are living in one room to Save On heating costs.
" This alarming trend is creating a ticking Time Bomb . Every Day our advisers hear from people left with less than zero each month, unable to repay debts and slipping further into the red to afford the basics. "
That is exactly the scenario for David McGinley, from Bamber Bridge , Lancashire, who has some existing Debt and is struggling financially despite he and his wife Ashlie both working.
" It angers me, " He Said . " We feel Like We Are doing The Right thing but are being punished. "
He Said they are in emergency credit on the electricity meter " every other day" their grocery bill has risen by 50%, and sometimes a meal is beans on toast.
" Once you start Falling Behind , you are chasing a never-ending Debt , " He Said .
Citizens Advice carries out Debt assessments for people seeking help from The Charity . Data from these cases shows that the amounts people owe are less than The Past , but an increasing proportion are in the red after covering their basic outgoings, known as a negative budget.
Groups already in Debt - primarily renters, Single Parents and the self-employed - are now less likely to be able to pay that off.
As a whole, those going through Debt assessments typically have 1p left at The End of the month after essential spending, reflecting the impact of rising prices and bills.
That may cause extra issues at This Time of year. Mr McGinley said he was " feeling guilty" about Christmas.
The government has stepped in to help millions of people Like him on universal credit and other benefits with a huge package of cost-of-living payments, as well as a cap on energy bills.
These payments will be next year, although the cap will become less generous.
