IVA completed

[Aaron]

Hi,

Recently completed my IVA a couple of years early for a F&F settlement.

My credit profile is looking much better, though Egg has not updated their records and want me to contact them to confirm I have completed things...

Anyway, now that I have completed things I am considering becoming an IFA as I work in the industry and seems like a good move.

I was wondering if by having not such a great credit history would this affect things in anyway or could I become an IFA without any issues? I have completed my IVA now in any case.

Thanks

Aaron firstly well done on completing your IVA. I recall Melanie Giles stating a while back that sometimes your experience of an IVA can be a benefit in the job:)

Thanks. Yes, that's probably right.

I was wondering really if it will affect my chances of becoming an IFA. I thought that you have to have good credit as your credit history will be checked and things like that.

Aaaron check out Andy Davies (posts on these boards) website...link on the forum. He completed an IVA in 2006 and look where he is now.

Andy hope you dont mind me copying your www site for Aaron:

I second all of that. Andy Davie is a true role model for debt rehabilitation.
