After informing Chantrey Vellacot more than once about my change of address ( I moved in Dec 2009!) it seems the IVA I thought I had completed in May still has a debt of £925. All the paperwork since then had been going to my old address so while I was here waiting for my certificate of completion (the last email from my supervisor who has now 'left the comapany' said he would get everything sorted and I should recive it in 4-6 weeks) As it is a week or so over that I thought I would email him to ask how things are going. The reply came from someone else expaining he had left the company and included attachments of the documents sent at the end of May to my old address.
Now I know I made every payment on time so I cancelled the standing order I had to them. Now they want the £925 extra. The reason my account got moved to Chantrey Vellacot was that my previous supervisor Barry Knights of Knights and co was up to no good and I think had his licence revoked.
I really don't know what to do now , fight it or just give up and pay the money that I think I don't owe! The paperwork is difficult to understand so I'm at a loss.
Any advice would be appreciaited guys.

A little bit more info now. I received a letter on the 24th April 2008 from Chantrey Vellacot saying that they had been appointed to take over my account by the High Court on the 26th Feb 2008 , so in the 2 month period inbetween that letter and it actually happening I had continued to pay Knights and co. On the statement the lady kindly forwarded to me shows a gap from 08/02/2008 to when I paid my first payment to Chantrey on the 20/05/2008. Luckily my internet banking allows me to reprint my statements and clearly shows the standing order being paid to Knights and co on the 15/2/2008 , 17/2/2008 and 15/4/2008. I have printed and scanned them then sent them to Chantrey with all the details. They are going to look at this for me and hopefully get it sorted , thats £1200 that has dissapeared. I don't see why I should have to pay it again ! Jase
You should be alright as you have proof that you have paid the money across. Fingers crossed.

Well last night I got the email I was hoping for. CV has double checked through my former IP's files and has confirmed that I did make all payments and they expect to get my certificate through asap.
My IVA is over ! I think I may have a couple of drinks to celebrate tonight ! Thanks all for listening to me grumbling.
That's fantastic news! Pleased to hear that you have sorted it and congratulations on completing.

This is one of the reasons why this forum is so helpful. I have now filed away my 1st payment receipt, and will be keeping all my bank statements to prove I have made my payments just in case!
