Through lack of folk in my personal life that know my situation I thought I could come on here and virtually cry a little bit.
So, long story short my husband and I with 14 months left of our arrangement and through severe lack of communication found ourselves in arrears. Today, we had a variation meeting to deal with these arrears. Creditors accepted variation with two modifications. 1 - we increase our monthly payments by £110 and 2 - they want us to extend by another 12 months :(
Our company, GT have been very sympathetic and supportive (thank goodness) and have listened to me cry down the phone like a baby several times...
I received the call a few hours ago from GT saying that they have managed to 'get rid' of the increase in payment clause but the 12 month extension still stands.
To be honest, I kind of expected the extension but being so close to the end is kind of like a stake through the heart (very dramatic I know, but how I feel). So my 14 months has now turned into 26 months. Lord knows how I will feel if, after those 26 months I suddenly have equity and have to extend again!! Guess I shall cross that bridge when I come to it. Anyhoo, no questions, nothing important, just venting. [:(]

It's very disappointing but it sounds like GT have done their very best for you? Just think how quick the time has gone already you are on the last leg! you never know circumstances could improve and you find you could finish early!!! Th[:)]is is my dream! I have absolutely no one to vent to apart from on here! no-one knows about my IVA. Vent whenever you need to

Thank you recovering!!

I am just so disappointed. I should have known better. I should never have assumed and I should have hounded GT when there were no replies to my emails. In saying that though, the blame does not lie completely with them. They have been supportive. I know they are not the quickest to reply to an email or a phone call but I have to say that I have had no real cause for complaint thus far. They have done their best and I am grateful of course. Just there seemed to be a glimmer of light there somewhere in the distance and now, once again, it's gone.

Lottery win would solve everything!! :)
