Do you have your own property? How many credit cards do you owe money to?

The decision on whether to go BR or try to enter an IVA is one that shouldnt be made without the help of an Insolvency Practitioner. A list can be found on www.iva.com,the site include reviews on various companies.

You really should discuss your options with an involvency practitioner who can explain the advantages, disadvantages and implications of each one with you on a one to one basis.

Hello Wayne, and welcome.

You could also consider a Debt Management Programme as well.

If you give an Insolvency Practitioner a ring, they will explain all your options and advise you as to the best way forward for you.
