Hi, ive looked around a few companies and have decided to go with payplan. They have worked out that i can pay £81 a month for 60 months, which doesnt seem alot to pay creditors back with a debt of about £15k, plus with the IP fees.
Have i got any chance with that return that the creditors will accept the proposal? or is it more a case of they would rather get something back then nothing?

Hi. Payplan are about the only company who will take on an IVA at that level of repayment, which they can do as they are funded by the creditors as well. It does boil down to getting something back, rather than nothing.

If your debt is under £15k a DRO might be worth looking at, if you have no assets and the disposable income can be brought down to less then £50 per month.

Depending on your creditors, that should be ok.

We also do low DI IVAs (down to £70 per month) and I'd happily draft a case at that level.

Companies don't put cases forward that they don't think will be accepted - it's a waste of everyone's time. If they've agreed you at £81 and that's reasonable for your affordability, go with it.

That's useful to know --- good to see an alternative to the "charity" sector which will entertain low DIs.

They just want to see what your regular outgoings are, but will question it if, for instance, there are large regular payments to the local betting shop.
