What will happen when I contact CAP?

When you call CAP, you’ll speak to someone from our friendly Credit Counseling Team. We will book an appointment for you and a CAP Center Manager will come out to visit you in your home (during this COVID-19 season we are offering the CAP's service using telephone/video calls or socially distanced visits).

If you can gather all your paperwork together, this will make the process a lot quicker. Our CAP Center Manager will happily sort through it all, and send it digitally and securely to CAP's head office, where we’ll look at your finances, work out a budget, offer advice and look at the best route out of debt for you. CAP want to see you through to financial freedom and beyond.

Does it cost anything?

No. Our service is completely free. We are able to provide a totally free service because CAP is a not for profit organization and receives donations from churches and individuals who want to help people.

Do I have to be a Christian?

Not at all, our services are for everyone. As Christians, we believe that God answers prayer, so we may offer to pray with you, but it’s up to you if you’re happy for us to do this or not. CAP helps anyone, regardless of religious beliefs, race, nationality, age, gender, marital status, sexual orientation or disability.
