It is certainly worth shopping around and go with the company that makes you feel most at ease. Five years is a long time and you need to be confident that should there be any problems during this period your IP firm is approachable.
Hi Claire, so glad you found this forum before you committed yourself to something that may not have been in your best interests. Its good you have started to shop around and glad you are finding there are better companies out there. Make sure you are completely happy before you finally commit as you never know, there may be even better companies still! You want to know you are being told of all the allowances you are entitled to, check a companies acceptance rate and read client reviews - it is the clients that have gone before you that will let you know plus and minus points. www.iva.com if you haven't visited it already.
Best wishes,

And Wuffy has 'Arsenal forever' and 'Proud to be a Gooner' tattoos. He also has an Arsene Wenger duvet cover and a cat called Fabregas. This is true....

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

Mr Peoples always gets very touchy when people bring up his musical roots. I know for fact that he makes out to be great mates with The Undertones, but I've seen him dance to Copacabana and I know where his true heart lies.
Not for me I'm afraid! Now play Muse or Shinedown and I'd be happy to agree with you!
I'd love to meet Michael - would love it if he could make a Frugal Friends meeting.

I've told him Jan and I know he is going to try his best to get over. One of the funniest and kindest guys I am priveleged to call a real friend - we have certainly been through a few scrapes together in our time!
I've only met him via the forum, but would love to meet him in reality.
