We have had 2 letters off the IVA Watchdog based in Bournmouth regarding our IVA, was it mis-sold, were you advised properly etc,, I presume these go in the bin. Are they just another company trying to charge me for another solution?
We are very happy with Melanies advice throughout & with all the team that work for her,, I presume again they just scour the insolency register for new IVA's they can target.
So the bin it is.

The positive thing is, by posting about these companies, more people are made aware of their ploy.

Before I joined this forum I must have had about 5 or 6 letters from various firms but thankfully I stuck by the advice if it sounds too good to be true it probably is so I binned them.

Had one this morning from IVA Watchdog addressed to Mr/Mrs Luke, am I gender ambigious now?? Haha!!

Filed under 'B' for BIN.

These things are like buses - none for ages then they all come at once!
IsaacMears Posted - 09 February 2010 : 23:43:36
They never speak to me either. I have had quite a few recently, they must be on a last ditch surge before someone pulls the plug on them.
kallis3 Posted - 09 February 2010 : 16:57:30
Best thing to do with them!
mikepapa Posted - 09 February 2010 : 16:52:45
They are now shredded & binned. (sorry David but I am sure you get plenty lol)
kallis3 Posted - 08 February 2010 : 22:43:54
I wish we could just get rid of all of these companies for good.
lesley_ Posted - 08 February 2010 : 21:56:38
Forward them to David Mond via Size 5 if I were you. Honestly they never give up. Or just file under B for Bin x

Woulnd't that be wonderful Mel?

thos eof us that choose an IVA doso with the intesnt of repaying what we can..... whether this is 100% or 20%

I found the experience intimidating and can completely undertand why some people take their option. I actually felt bullied!

To try to make money from someones misfortune is hoorendous.

These letters come from a company who have absolutely no clue what they are talking about, and select your personal information from a register that should not so publicly available.

Whenever I phone them up when one of my clients receives a letter, they do not even have the moral courage to take or return my calls. I feel sure that they will not be around for too much longer.

Hi Mikepapa

you are right to be wary and well done you for 'in the bin it goes' These firms are really getting up my nose. I have been party to them myself and what an annoying bunch of miss informed numpty's.

The people I spoke to were so out of it... they got nothing right in their advice.

As you say, If you're happy... then good stuff.

Avoid at all costs n forward to David Mond.

These "dogs" never seem to go away n prey on the vulnerable.
Julie Posted - 08 February 2010 : 17:01:17
You're right Mike, they're a company trying to make a fast buck!

You could forward the letters to David Mond I know he's been working hard to get rid of these companies.
