Thank you for all your advice, just to let you know that i sent all paper work off today to ask for a creditors meeting to consider the £6,500 as full and final settlement. From a quick look at the figures the creditors would receive 58p in the pound rather than the original 48p in the pound originally accepted (over payments made during the 3 years due to higher disposable income).

I just hope the creditors accept the higher dividend as it will be nearly 2 years earlier than envisaged.

I will let you know how i get on.

Once again thank you for all your advice, what would our IVA's be like without the help of this forum i hate to think.

Good luck to everyone currently in an IVA or about to apply for one, it is not an easy way out of debt but at least you can see the light at the end of the tunnel to being debt free.

58p in the £ is a very good dividend to achieve Neil, especially when some of your debts may well have been sold on to debt purchasers for around 10p in the £. Good luck with the offer and do let us know how you get on.

Just thought i give you all an update on my Full and Final Settlement request. I have now received the draft proposal report after 3 months of waiting (Freeman Jones did keep me informed all the time) and have signed and sent it off.

So now just waiting to be advised when the creditors meeting will take place :-) I am feeling slightly nervous as previous full and final in November 2012 was declined although we were offering much less than the original proposal, asking the creditors to accept 40 pence in the pound against the original 46 pence in the pound.

Now i have 19 months left paying £369 a month (original proposal was to pay 60 x £300)so based on that figure have £7011 left to pay. The full and final is for £6,500 and will have to make another payment of £369 this month while waiting for creditors meeting so the creditors will get nearly all my remaining payments back if they accept.

Like i said my original proposal was for 60 x £300 payments (total to be repaid £18,000) and based on all the figures for the full and final i will have paid back just over £22,000 (original total debt was £28862). My circumstances improved during the IVA so extra was paid in over the past 2 years or so.

The original dividend was 46 pence in the pound and now the dividend will be 58 pence in the pound.

I just hope the creditors accept this proposal as they will receive nearly all the remaining payments about 17 months early and my circumstances could change.

Just wanting to here from the experts if this has a good chance of being accepted? My creditors are Natwest, Egg and MBNA although i think most been sold on by now.

So now the worrying starts again and the thinking of what if they decline this again :-(

i have to say even though this has been a long 3 months to draft the proposal Freeman Jones have been very good, i have had a few problems before with them (especially a particular relationship manager) but i think it is also right to praise them when they have been good.

Thanks for the kind advice in advance.

I find this very interesting and yet very confusing. I too may be in a situation where I can make a settlement offer thanks to my sister being in a position to loan me some cash.
I believe that I had debts of £52,000. It was agreed that I repay £0.57 in the pound. The figure then owed would be £29,640.

I calculate that I have already paid £30,785 (including £7653 for the sale of shares) ?

Obviously I have gone wrong somewhere but I can't see it for looking.

Looking forward though with 14 months left to run I would estimate that I will pay another £6,090 plus whatever this years share allocation sell at. Although I'm not sure what the equity release clause really means?

Does anyone think that an offer of £12,000 be a fair one?

I really would like closure as my wife is due to undergo radiotherapy for a cancerous growth in her throat which was removed surgically.

It is my pleasure to be of assistance to you Roberto.

With only 14 payments of £435 to go, I would have thought an offer of more like £6,000 would be reasonable, but do try to discuss this with your own IP.

Just thought i give you all a further update, the creditors meeting for the full and final settlement offer is due on the 12th September.

Just hope that they accept what we have offered. Current outstanding payments are £7011.00 (19 x £369) and we are offering £6,500 as a full and final settlement. The expected dividend will now be 58p compared to original expected dividend of 46p.

Fingers crossed and i will advise you outcome of the meeting. Hope 2nd time lucky for the full and final settlement offer.

Thank you all for your advice.

Well today is the day if i find out if the full and final settlement offer will be accepted. I am really nervous and takes me back to when my IVA was originally accepted.

I am probably more nervous that my previous full and final was rejected last year and i just hope this is accepted by the creditors as my full and final is nearly the total expected to be repaid in the following 18 months left of my IVA.

The meeting is at 11.00 and just hope not adjourned as it was last year.

I will let you know how i get on and just looking for words of encouragement really. I don't like this waiting around.
