I'm reaching out to discuss my current financial situation and explore options for paying off my debts. I'm committed to making regular payments and can afford to pay R per month. I'd like to know if this amount can be allocated towards my accounts and if there's a way to set up a payment plan that works for me. Could you please advise on the best course of action and let me know if there are any additional requirements or documentation needed? I'd appreciate your guidance and assistance in getting back on track with my payments.
