What are the consequences of not keeping up payments of a trust deed?

Q: I have recently been made redundant and I’m not entitled to a decent redundancy package as I’ve not been with the company very long. I am now worried that I won’t be able to keep up with my trust deed payments of £250 a month. What would the consequences be if I missed a payment despite my circumstances clearly changing?

A:The Trustee will write to you every six months throughout the period of your Trust Deed to monitor and assess your Financial Position and your ability to maintain the contribution at the current level. In addition to this the Trustee will explain at the outset of the Trust Deed that should you have any change in circumstance which will affect your ability to make a contribution you must update him with immediate effect.
If you have a change in circumstance and notify the Trustee of this providing evidence to substantiate your change in circumstance. The Trustee will take all factors into account before making a decision as to whether to reduce, suspend, stop or infact increase your contribution. It may be depending on the circumstance that your Trust Deed period is extended or shortened or that you are able to suspend the payments until such time as your Income position improves.
