    Although many people do contact the OR and mos of the time the OR is fine about it, it is in moonbeever's contract that they will be the first port of call in handling all changes to the IPA

    Thanks Debt,

    Do Moon Beever have the authority to "adjust" IPA's.

    Or do they refer back to the OR/RTLU?

    They do have that power, of course you will always have an option to appeal to the OR and then a judge as it is an agreement

    Lol - I'm beginning to realise that...

    On a technical point - if you had an IPO - you would have to go back to court to get it adjusted wouldn't you?

    yes you would, only the judge can change an IPO

    Now just to get a bit more technical...

    You have an IPA - your income changes - downwards - and you want your IPA reduced.

    Moon Beever refuses

    The OR/ RTLU refuse

    But lo and behold the Judge says yes - it can be lowered.

    Does the IPA become an IPO?

    And...if if all this happens - would you have to go back to court if it needed to be adjusted again?
