Hi freddy,

Nothing to stop you from trying. They can only say no. If you make any savings though you may have to pay them across to the IVA.

A lot of posters try to get fixed rates if they can whilst in an IVA. At least you know you can breathe for a while if the interest rates go up.

All the best, I'm wondering if maybe I should approach my lender, it might be worth doing if these interest rates are going to rise as predicted. x

Might be worth trying for Lesley, although I think interest rates might not be going up quite as soon as originally thought as things have gone back into negative again.

It's a tough one isn't it? Might ride it out and see how things go for a while x
