I am sure that your IP is negotiating with TDX, the representatives for HBoS plc - do you know why they turned you down? If you can address their issues, then you may well be able to get them to change their minds.

Good luck!

I find that a really odd reason for rejection, and hope that your IP works hard for you in explaining to the creditors that your husband does not have a gambling addiction.

I agree with Melanie on this. Four years is a long time ago and as long as there is no evidence of gambling in the previous 6-12 months I am sure that your IP can argue this one out with the creditors.

Hi Sue,

As the experts above have already stated it is rather odd that Hbos gave a rejection due to gambling that occurred 4 years ago, surely they could see that he has ceased.

Keep us posted with the final decision.

Best Regards. IVA Experts

This does seem odd, there was gambling on some of my cards a lot more recently than 4 years ago and it never cropped up as an issue, though I did specifically include it to be shown in my statement. Was it mentioned in your proposal?

Hi Sue - also Im not sure who might of initially rejected my proposal but I know the key for me was getting KPMG to accept - which they duly did with a better offer and beneficiary interest payments at the end of the proposal (3 extra months) - though they left it till the last minute! So yes, things can be turned around.

yes it was mentioned on our proposal.thought it best to be upfront incase they found out anyway

That was my thinking too, hbos accepted my proposal so cant see why they wouldnt for you on that basis then.
