There are so many ways for debt to build up, but when might it become a problem and what can you do about this? We’re unpacking the not so obvious warning signs of debt being out of control and the impact it can have.

In this episode of A Little Bit Richer, host Iona Bain is joined by Vikki Brownridge from debt charity, Step Change. Together they discuss how easy it is to get into debt, the impact it has on your credit score, how to manage it and recognising when it is becoming a problem. Plus advice on what to do if you are in financial difficulty and struggling.

Iona and her guests share their own personal thoughts and opinions in this podcast. These might be different from L&G’s take on things. They give financial guidance for a UK audience that’s relevant at the time of recording. It’s general best practice, not the kind of personalised advice you’d get from a financial adviser.
