DMP vs Staff current account!

Hey all,

I'm about to embark on a DMP with CCCS. Thing is, several yrs ago I worked for my bank, who is now my biggest creditor, ha ha. I retained a staff account, as part of our T & C's (we were outsourced to other company)

I wonder....should I expect harsher treatment from them being ex staff, but still actually having what is considered to be a staff account? :think:

Ooh err

    Shouldn't make a difference IMO.

  • If you are no longer working for them it should make no difference.

    I agree , I worked for a bank when I applied for IVA and made no difference. They were also one of my creditors with 2 current accounts with OD, loan and credit card.

    p.s. I did leave this job the week before my IVA meeting
