Iva first payment

Hi to all and Happy New Year,

We have had an iva set up and approved with the help of Grant Thornton and the first payment was meant to go out this month but we have not been able to afford the payment due to the c.s.a., taking out an extra payment just before xmas. I have been in touch with csa about this this and they said they cannot do anything till next week but by then it will be too late.
How do you think gt will react to this, does anyone have any experience of this company. really dont want to default as we are looking forward to getting our life sorted.
Thanks in advance for any help

    Give them a ring first thing on tuesday and explain to them. We did our IVA through GT and always found them more than helpful. We had to miss a payment once and it was just added to the end of IVA.

    When was your payment due ? Make sure you cancel the SO payment with your bank if you have time as the last thing you want if to be charged by your bank for a bounced payment.
