Hi Hilary,

You would need to speak to your IP about this. Is there any reason why you cancelled your contract when this would have been allowed fo in your IVA?

You can included the debt now, but I do wonder why this was not thought of before the IVA was presented. Have you managed to get another contract, or have you reverted to Pay As You Go?

Hi Hilary-

Did you get in this debt before the IVA started or during the IVA?

As far as I'm aware you won't be able to include the mobile debt in your IVA as it was incurred after the IVA was agreed.

I think you could be right there Skippy.

So long as all of the charges on the account are pre IVA, there is no real reason why this cannot be included - but anything relating to the post IVA period will be a debt you will have to cover.

Mel, do you mean the charges can be included if they are pre-IVA?
