hi ive got my iva meeting in the morning and im pooing myself , im really scared they gonna refuse it, m not sleeping and i am really stressed any advice welcome thanks:confused:

  • Is there any reason you know of why they might refuse it? Unless you have a creditor that's known to obstruct IVAs then you should be ok. My meeting was over before I knew it, the creditors had phoned in their modifications and agreed before I even got there, so I wouldn't fret too much, it'll all be over soon! Good luck!

    ta im not going 2 meeting just gonna do it over phone do they normailly agree on what you offer?
  • I'm not sure what the acceptance rate is, the better the IVA firm the higher the acceptance rate. As long as it's the creditor's best option for a return then they would usually accept, unless they are a company that routinely rejects, but even then they have to be a majority creditor by value.

    Good luck with the meeting this morning! Nobody went to mine - me neither! :rolleyes: in fact they had trouble getting an answer from any of the companies so had to do it twice I think but it went through ok.
