I personally took my Vanquis card out 5/6 months ago, it's limit was raised from the initial £250, to £500 last month. I always pay in full every month, so have never been stung by the interest charge, nor do I intend to. I have subsequently received a Captial One Classic Card that I now use instead...

I've recently found out that someone I know very well entered into an IVA, my question is, I also know that they went on holiday to somewhere warm and sunny a year into their agreement with money back from PPI.

I would have happily camped outside their office, but I'm not sure that I coud have justified the expediture on a tent and ferry ticket when submitting any bank statements! :-). Karol is out of the office according to e-mail autoreply, so I guess I'll go through the traditional route and hope someon...

Hia kallis3, Yes, I'm still on the insolvency registar, and I have been bugging GT for my certificate. It was delayed going to closure department internally for a little while - not sure why, maybe just a mix up at GT, which I was fine with.. Then delayed again because not all creditors had claimed,...

For those who don't know what been going on, I made a full and final offer to my creditors back in December'ish last year through my IP Grant Thornton.

I admit I still tend to impulse buy. Since my CofC has taken a long time to get produced due to my creditors not sumbitting claims, my IP allowed me to get a Credit Card with a small limit on it to start the rebuld process of my credit rating. I ensure that any impulse buys are done on that card - s...

Hey recovering. Don't feel bad about how "daft" you might have been. You've done the right thing by coming on here and looking at IVA's. Bank statements are a funny one. I remember when I started down the IVA path, I opened "THE DRAWER". I'm sure many people here had a similar place where you check ...
