Tell us about your debt and how has this affected you? e.g. anxiety levels, financial and accommodation stress:
The debt notification came via a collection agency text in mid feb. after the letter was sent to my old address.
This has caused me serious concern as i may now have to cancel an expensive holiday and am unable to afford basic necessities.
How do you feel about the way the Government has handled this process?:
Ham-fisted and out of touch. No consideration for the plight of less-advantaged australians but all the care for taking back money that poor australians cant afford.
