overdraft that i am liable for.We are paying a small amount each month off the overdraft.Anyway I want to change our telephone and broadband from Virgin to plusnet as it is cheaper.Am I likely to have
any problems,virgin is in my name?Also would I have a problem
taking out a contract on a mobile phone.I have an old PAYG at the moment?

  • You should not have trouble getting any of these products (I've got the opposite situation: I'm in the IVA, the Wife is not).

    Your OH may struggle to get a mobile phone contract, but T-Mobile are IVA friendly.
