IVA

Hey I’m looking for some advice, I applied for an IVA and signed the contract, the creditors meeting isn’t until the 4th of March. I have really changed my mind about my options and I don’t want to go forward anymore, is it too late?

    Wrong board.

    Or even the IVA board!

    No it'not too late.Tell your IP that you don't want to proceed.

    If you gave them your bank details make sure any d/d is cancelled

    Some of the things I see with IVA firms and the people they put in IVAs (presumably for the commission is horrendous). Make sure you email them, put it in writing and keep a record of it. Because I can imagine if you do it over the phone they may just "forget".
