The nominations provide some very welcome recognition for Freeze Debt, who have experienced a great amount of success in helping their customers free themselves of over £22m worth of debt collectively since forming as the only app-based free debt advice and solution service in May 2019.

Harjit Moore, CEO of Freeze Debt said “We are absolutely delighted to have received our nominations for the 2020 UK Business Tech Awards. We are up against some tough competition in both the ‘App of the Year’ and ‘Innovator of the Year’ categories to win the award itself, however I have got great respect for these awards and for previous winners and nominees so we are thrilled to simply receive a nomination. The nominations we have received highlight the growth the company has been through in the short time since we launched, which is testament to the innovation and hard work of my team.”

“From a personal perspective, I am honoured to be shortlisted for the Northern Asian Powerlist. There are many in the Asian community doing extraordinary things in business in the north of England and to be recognised alongside individuals I greatly admire makes me extremely proud.”
