Well I promised to keep you updated, especially for those still in the closures, ppi and completions period with DFD!
After several false starts, many broken promises, ppi, vat, computer system updates and several meetings.......I today received a scanned copy of my completion certificate with the original copy posted today to me!![:D]
So that's it, it's finally over (apart from all the updating CRA nightmare!!!) Thank you so much to the many people, past and present, who have offered support, advise and a giggle with me over the last 2 years I've been using this forum. I've not always seen eye to eye with everyone but I've always respected their views and taken on board their thoughts!
Big thanks to all the IP's too who give up much of their time offering free advice to the many who come here for many of the same reasons we all do. Also to Andy to for his relentless managing the great resource that is the forum!
So........hang in there, it will come to an end, please don't loose hope! I look back to where I was 5 1/2 years ago and where I am today, certainly the best decision I made!
A very happy Arty[:p]

IVA completion and certificate received 08/10/2012!!!
But don't worry too much about updating the CRAs, as long as the default dates are correct they will drop off naturually. They seem to be doing that for me without any action from my part.
Last Payment - November 2011 - Completion Certificate received 2 weeks after last payment, Removed from Insolvency Register within 4 weeks after last payment.
I emailed my IP at DFD 3 weeks ago asking for an update as to how my closure process was progressing. I received an auto reply saying he was on Hol until the following week, so I emailed the customer care manager, making sure I copied my IP in.. I do not want to name or attempt to shame her,as I think she has a lot on and genuinely seems to help any clients that contact her. The week before last she emailed me apologising for the delay and saying she would get back to me last week, which she did not.,I thought she may have contacted me today, but alas this did not happen.
I don't know whether to contact them again or just leave it to see if anyone makes contact with me this week. In my reply to the customer care managers email tome 3 weeks ago, i said it appeared that you have to push DF every step of the way in order to make progress when awaiting your completion certificate and I'm sad to say that it's even that way when you complain to the customer care manager. My IP hasn't replied in any way , shape or form to any of the emails he has been copied into and the customer care manager hasn't contacted within the timescale she put forward to me.
Oh we'll, lets see if they make contact with me this week, or if I will need to push them YET AGAIN
Last payment made April 2012
Certificate received 1st Nov 2012

Great news Arty! Reminds me of my dance around the house from a few weeks back[:D]
I know what you mean about the forum too. I have had something of a love/hate relationship with it over the years - even keeping away entirely for quite some time.
Arty that is fantastic news, i've only just caught up with things as back to work now after nearly 9 months off sick, congratulations and a long time coming, hope you have been out celebrating, good luck for the future. xxxx
Hey 12 months to go that means we have hopefully moved up the IVA game of monopoly as Arty has got her certificate, fingers crossed it won't be too long for you now. xxxx
Om shanti, namesté, good luck to all who are embarking on the IVA journey, it isn't always an easy one but the outcome is the best.
IVA COMPLETED August 2012, received Completion certificate 18.4.13.
