Been told I still owe interest. I thought it was frozen.

Hi
Completed an IVA in August 2013, i have received a couple of ppi refunds which have gone to Payplan who have distributed the amount to creditors and 8% to my self, i called them the other day and asked what did i still owe from the 24k debt to my surprise i had payed £500 more, i was informed that i still owe interest on this, i was not aware that interest is charged? i thought it was frozen?, i asked my case officer what is being charged and what do i still owe he was unable to answer this,

As far as I am aware all interest on loans etc which are claimed within the IVA are and should be frozen

If you pay all of the debt withing the IVA they then add 8% statutory interest. Some arrangements exclude this and there have been a fair few variations accepted to get this removed.

There will also be fees on top of the original debt.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014
