If nobody vote then your IP will probably adjourn to try to get more votes. Fingers crossed at least one says yes and it will be accepted.

Hi crg
If no votes are received the meeting is inquorate and aguise is right, your IP will adjourn the meeting to chase creditors to submit votes. The IP can adjourn the meeting for up to 14 days in order to allow time to receive votes.
Who are your creditors? Some are easier to obtain votes from than others!
Hope this helps

Hi crg,
Can you tell us who ur creditors are? So we can tell you which ones are more likely to vote.
Regards,

Unfortunately the ultimate outcome if none of your creditors vote is that your IVA will not be accepted as you have failed to achieve a yes from 75% of your creditors who vote on the proposal (pro rata to debt owed).
As the others have said non voting is usually dealt with by an IP adjourning and then using their contacts within the creditors to secure a vote.
Best Regards

Hi
Wouldn,t life be easier for all if a non vote was counted as a yes vote.As long as creditors had enough notice of the meeting I can,t see the problem.It would take away the uncertainty and give a difinitive answer on the day.

They are all pretty commercial to be honest, and if you are putting your best foot foreward via an IVA you ought to have nothing to worry about.

the only thing putting me down is that my overdraft is also in my ex-wife`s name, which i`m currently trying to get her name taken off, if i send my letter of authority to them surley they wont taken her name off the account?

If they are aware of a potential IVA I would have thought it unlikely that they would remove your ex-wife as she will be jointly liable for the debt and they will persue her.

thanks storm, thats why i`ve not sent the letter of authority to the bank yet, it`s been two weeks and they`ve asked me to fill out a budget planner which i`ve said no, so them chasing my ex-wife is worrying me

I take it she doesn't know the extent of the potential liability ??
