Hi All

Just a post to try to act as a stress release, we are in an IVA proposal and have a slight deferment until Monday for some of our creditors to consider further the proposal. My point is it is strssing us out, and with the weekedn ahead of us we will be round the bend by Monday, any tips or advice will be appreciated.



Thanks


John

Long walks,or alcohol. Hard to not think about it,but if the proposal is the best you can put forward then fingers crossed it goes ahead.
Discharged today the 8th feb 2012. View is much brighter now.
Continuing to rebuild our credit worthiness.

Trip to the cinema perhaps? Or visit friends?

Monday will soon be here and I also have everything crossed that it goes ok for you.

Try not to stress too much as you have put forward your best offer and the rest is down to negotiation. Hopefully it will be resolved on Monday and you can get on with your life but that does not make the weekend any less of a worry. When I am stressed I find playing card games a great way to relax [unless you play for money and lose].

Good idea John!

Lets hope the creditors have a productive weekend as well - you deserve a break.

Hi John good luck too from me!
Keep busy & watch dvds, get a takeaway, eat loads of chocolate - or better still Ice Cream! The Weekend will soon be over.
Final IVA payment made in April 2013, never ever thought we could do it or get through it but we did! X

John

You are in the very safest of hands, and I know that Michael will personally make it his business to try and get as many "yes" votes as he and his team can to support the IVA. It may be a low dividend, but you are trying your best and deserve to get the right result.

Keeping everything crossed for you!
Regards, Melanie Giles, Insolvency Practitioner

Mel, how are you aware that "Michael" is doing this IVA? - I am just curious.

Don't worry Janderson as whoever is putting your case forward knows what he/she is doing. Let them do the worrying for you. My advice is to get out of the house and do something with friends and family to take your mind off the matter. Good luck from me too.
