Your IVA Co. Woukd you recommend them?

Hello
Would you recommend to others the company that set up your IVA?
Are you happy with the service, do you have any regrets?

I am seriously considering this option, I do not think there is another way forward for us, I have heard a few companies mentioned here and I would appreciate any recommendations, on this thread or by pm.

Many thanks

    Yes. Ive not had a problem with mine at all (Im with Blair Endersby) and Ive only heard good things about the new people in charge of the IVAs now - so can only assume that they are still good for people less far in than me (Im just starting my final year - yay !!!)
    Have you looked on the IVA website forum thingy?? there are lots of people with lots of different things to say about lots of different companies...

    Good Luck !!

  • Hi there,

    You can try IVA.co.uk which has lists of all the IVA providers and has customer ratings so you can see who fares best.

    Good luck! - let me know how you get on.

  • Thank you very much
  • I'm with Payplan, would definitely recommend them although my IVA was 'bog standard' and I've never had to contact them about anything untoward so can't say how they would be if I needed assistance/advice.

    I am a member of the iva.co.uk forum mentioned above and Melanie Giles is extremely highly thought of, she is an actual IP and posts regularly on the forum - she is highly knowledgeable and has answered many questions for me when I was proposing a full and final settlement 3 years into my IVA. Although Payplan have been just fine with me, if I had my time over again I would definitely go with Melanie Giles based on her companies reputation alone.
