Hi, My IP arranged for me to pay a full and final settlement of £1500.00. I only had 6mths left to pay after a lengthy 6yr iva. I can no longer get access to the settlement sum as my mother has had a stroke. She was giving me the money to settle but I cant take the money off her now as she may need it to pay towards her ongoing care. I was told by debt free direct that my only option is bankrupcy which would mean I would lose my home along with my husband and 9yr old son. I am really scared and don't know why they cant settle with all the payments I have already made. My GP has had to put me on anti depressents as I am really struggling to get my head around all this mess. I was so close to being sorted. Gutted! Help!:(

Firstly sorry to hear of your circumstances. I really do not believe that DFD would go down the bankruptcy route this late on in your iVa.
I would email your IP and request a conversation with them direct or you could contact Judith Anderton from DFD who posts on this forum ...... I am sure there is a way out of this.

You must be worried sick. Don't be. Demand to speak to yr ip. If not a case worker. Firstly get passed the guys who answer the phone. Sometimes they think they are experts!
