Help with IVA Question

Hi, i'm in the process of stating one with Payplan. It was agreed i would pay £227 a month and i would be paying 37p in the pound and after fees it was 26/27p in the pound. However when i got my agreement to sign they have got me down as £284 and their fees work out at nearly £7k.
Does that fee sound correct, seems like its more like 40% fees to me and its hard to get hold of the IVA people.

any advice appreciated
thanks
will

    Hi,

    Im going back at least 7-8yrs when my ex partner entered an IVA agreement, Im sure (if I remember) that the first amount agreed, thats what you should be paying, do persist with the company though before signing anything official. That amount agreed should have incl all charges!

    However, things have probably changed since then - sorry Im not much help

    He didn't see his IVA through, and after 2 and a half yrs, he declared Bankruptcy anyway

    Goodluck
