From Buy Now, Pay Later plans to monthly subscriptions, modern conveniences promise to make our lives easier. But these small payments can quietly stack up into a sizable debt that jeopardises our financial future.

For example, a £10-a-month streaming service seems harmless, but six months later, you might be paying for five you barely use. Or those 'Buy Now, Pay Later' purchases you thought were manageable could turn into growing debt.

Join our host, Philippa Lamb, and our expert panel as they discuss the hidden cost of convenience:
