Steve Rees, Debt Consultant
• BHED (Hons) English Degree
• Teacher for 7 years
• 10 years experience as a debt advisor
Steve has a BHED (Hons) degree in English from Kingston University and was a teacher for several years, receiving specific recognition from the OFSTED national team of inspectors for his work within education.
He worked in a range of schools offering support with the provision for children with special educational needs and those children for whom English is a second language. Steve began working as a debt consultant 10 years ago and in this time has developed a clear understanding of not only the way in which debt can escalate, but also the best ways to address specific debt situation.
Personal Statement from Steve:
"It is really important to understand that people in debt are not alone in this country. The reasons for financial instability can be unfortunate, can be unlucky, and even if you feel that it is through your own mismanagement it is vital that you do not bury your head in the sand; it will not go away.
There are a few solutions for you to consider and it is important not to make a decision until you understand how each one could work for you. Above all your solution must be sustainable: affordable payments and a realistic time frame with charges either reduced or frozen. Then you will be in control of your finances again and ultimately you will become debt free."

I thought your service was prompt and to the point. the way you explained how to work out my route to take by your simple equation was brilliant. it helped me to make an informed decision and I have now moved on and sorted my problems out. I am now completely out of the woods and am still in bankruptcy until April (I hope) but it was like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders. Many thanks

Steve really was fantastic. When I first spoke to him I was at an all time low and didn't know what to do to get myself out of debt. He was helpful and understanding and gave me all the time I needed which made me feel like my needs were important. We found the solution and he guided me through the whole process and was on hand whenever needed.
Really a credit to Vincent Bond.

Hugely impressed by the speed and accuracy of the information. Steve is obviously an accomplished and objective professional.
Perfect advice, delivered in an effective and logical manner.
He has helped me enormously by being, calm and thorough. He also put my many fears to rest over what, at first, seemed a daunting task.
1st Class and a huge asset to your company. I have recommended him personally several times to friends and colleagues.

What can I say..Apart from Steve Rees "Thank-You so much" without your help and advice I feel I may have lost everything. Steve was easy talk to and helped me understand what my debt meant and how he could help me.Even at my lowest ebb you continuted to call me to help me (even when I couldn't face answering the phone)you kept calling to help me and I'm so glad you did.You never judged me about my debt and you made me feel like I was not the only one who felt embarrased about being in Debt I now have a manageable Debt Management Plan thanks to Steve recommending me to Brightoak and I can see a light at the end of the tunnel now and it's all thanks to you...I will always recommend Steve Rees of Vincent Bond to anyone who needs help and understanding of their debt. Once again "Thanks Steve Rees You're the best" Kind Regards Jenny

I have taken 5 minutes out of my time just to show my appreciation for the hard work and flexibility the Steve Rees has provided me on my way to debt recovery. If you are thinking of getting yourself out of financial difficulties then he is the person to consult. I was getting deeper and deeper into financial difficulty and there was absolutely no way out. I contacted Vincent Bond and discussed my options. Within 2 months I had an agreed IVA with my creditors and fixed monthly payments.
A great BIG thank you!!!!!

Thank you for your invaluable help through a very difficult time. We wanted to leave feedback for you on the website, hopefully we can help others realise they are not alone!
We certainly feel that our selection of yourselves was a key and important choice – other companies may offer the service cheaper or for free, but we will always believe that in this world you get what you pay for.
Once more, thank you.
