How often you meet your budget coach depends on your personal situation and needs. At the start of the programme it may be necessary to meet more often, for example weekly or fortnightly, to map out your financial situation and draw up your budget plan.
After that, the appointments can become less frequent, for example once a month. During these appointments, you and your budget coach can discuss the progress of your financial situation, tackle any problems and adjust your budget plan if necessary.
It is important to know that appointments with your budget coach can also take place by phone or video call. This means you do not always have to be physically present, and contact can take place at a time and place that suits you best. Discuss with your budget coach what works best for you and how often you need to meet to improve your financial situation.
