Hi, I highly recommend Zebra Money. I used them to find me a mortgage after my IVA ended and I cannot thank them enough - my life has moved on from the IVA thanks to their expert advice. I never thought I would have a mortgage but there really is life after an IVA. Good luck for the future!

Thanks both for the comments/replies.

Lisa - it is reassuring to know that I do not have to sign these forms and I have made the decision not to and and request they stop processing my personal data.

Many thanks, Ryan.

My IVA ended in Nov 2011 and certificate received in June 2013 (the delay was caused by ongoing PPI claims by CMC). At the time, I advised CMC and Grant Thornton that I never ever had PPI. I now have received a letter from Slater Hayward Law to say that they are auditing the PPI claims and need my c...

Thanks guys, very happy! #128516;

Hi All, just wanted to share some news to let everyone know that there is light at the end of the tunnel. My IVA ended in Jan 2012 and I received my completion certificate in Sept 2013.

But if I went to my bank or another high street lender and didn't offer them infor...

Hi Katie, I was able to. I explained to the letting agent that I was in an IVA, he checked with the landlord and because I was in full-time employment and had good references, the landlord and letting agency were happy for me to rent. In fact, when I left the property the landlord said, "it's been a...

Hi All, I finished my IVA in Jan 2012 and received my CC in Sept 2013. I have cleared up my credit files as I want to apply for a mortgage as a first time buyer, hopefully around March time next year. I decided to apply for a credit card that I could use for petrol and food shop each month, and then...

Thank you Kelly for your advice.

Thanks, yes I have the reports from Experian and Equifax too.

Hi All, just clearing up my credit files after receiving CC. I have sorted Noodle, so as they are part of Call Credit do I still need to get a report from Call Credit? Or do they hold the same information? Advice gratefully received. p.s. I am very impressed with the response from credit agencies so...

Thanks for the reply Kelly O, very helpful. Does that mean there is no point me checking Calll Credit as they will hold the same information as Noddle?
