I think after you've received your CC, anything you get after this is yours but I can't be sure. Maybe one of the experts can clarify this for you.
IVA completed!!! Looking forward to getting my life back! Stay positive and you'll get there in the end.

The theory is that any asset that existed prior to or during the IVA can be captured. This is based on (some differing) legal opinion and has yet to be tested in court.

Some IP's are not going back over old cases, however, they are duty bound to recover an asset they are made aware of. Some IP's are actively going back to closed cases and investigating.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.

I think its down to your conscious .... If uou know you have been asked to pass any further monies over, can you honestly not do so ?

Hmmm, it's interesting that you state that if you had been able to claim ppi before your iva then you wouldn't have needed an iva in the first place, why is that do you think? Perhaps because you would have been able to clear your debts? If that's the case, why do you feel that now you have had an iva and had the benefit of no interest or charges on those debts for the last 5 years, plus perhaps had a certain % written off that the ppi money should now be yours and not go someway to repaying those debts?

Sorry if this sounds harsh, but your logic doesn't add up

Hmmm ... I wonder .... would not having taken out PPI have saved you from an IVA ? In my case I would probably have just been able to borrow a little more !!!
And, as Lem alludes to above ... the sums I have saved in debt written off, along with interest I have not had to pay, makes my PPI refund a drop in the ocean anyway. My creditors are welcome to it.

Hi

What would an IP do and what could they do if the IVA has been completed and debtor is off the Insolvency Register ?

They could demand PPI is repaid and collect via courts ? does this not all fall under the continuing trust thing ?

They could argue that failing to inform them of the PPI (if known about during IVA) was fraud which would null the IVA.

Hi

Not sure if they could, if your IVA is completed then no debt exists and would the IP open the case to distribute funds to creditors ? If the PPI claim was started prior to closure of IVA then why was IVA closed and CC issued, or was this issued under the condition that any outstanding PPI claims are made to IP ?

Interesting scenario

I wonder if the debt does cease to exist, or whether it's just not collectable.

I'm fairly sure anyone sought to defraud their creditors/IP, the creditors would look to receive additional funds, if so then the debt still exists ?

Also with the issuing of completion certificates before PPI is finished suggests the debt still exists, as if when completion certificate was issued the debts were null and void where does the PPI go ?

From reading the original post it appears Equity & Finance have done the delving. If this is the case, I think the cheque would need to go to them but I would be writing to ask them to pass on the interest payment to you and not creditors.
