Hi Rachel,

Which IP Company are you with if you do not mind me asking?? Have you spoken to your IP direct regarding this issue as having paid 4 years contributions there is no way in hell I would let them fail my IVA now due to a fault on there part - how can they chase you for paperwork from that long ago!!! There issue not yours.

sorry --- FREEMAN JONES part of gregory pennington- think banking etc
agreed their issue not ours but they dont seem to care they just want there paperwork, surely if this paperwork was that important they wouldnt have accepted the last 4yrs worth of payments ? seems like they were happy when they were getting there money!! these issues only arose when we started paying reduced fees (as advised by the relation ship manager we had for 4yrs)

I can understand how you feel, but your IP does have a job to do at the same time. There does not need to be a problem here - all you need to do is politely ask your IP to summarise the issues they have with your case, and enquire why it has taken them so long to request this documentation from you. Is the provision of the documentation likely to result in a higher return for creditors?

Freeman Jones are part of the trade association DEMSA, which has OFT code approval, so if you are unable to get a satisfactory response you could also seek guidance from that source as well.

Hello again Rachel,

The company legally needs that paperwork. I'm sure they don't want to fail the IVA any more than you do, but you need to talk to them!

I'm sure that if the IP or a manager in that company knew that you were panicking this much they would drop everything to explain the situation.
Take care,

What is the problem in you providing them with the paperwork? Has it been destroyed or lost? If so, and if you say that it had originally been provided to them, I suggest that you send them a fairly stiff letter expressing your concerns, and that you cannot produce the documentation. This is not an IVA failure issue, and if they feel it is they should seek creditor approval and you should seek legal advice. Although I would never encourage not providing an IP with documentation that they have requested, I feel sure that creditors will prefer to have their money and end the arrangement rather than worrying about a few missing papers.

Sorry - but it is your duty to produce this information to your IP and not theirs to chase around third parties looking for it. I can't understand why it hasn't been chased earlier however.

So the jigsaw is still 5% short and they probably need this information for very good reasons. Bite the bullet and get it to them as soon as you can, in the interests of cordial relationships and a well run IVA.

Hi Rachel

If you can tell us what you are missing, someone may have been in the same position and be able to advise you of how to get this
