Well the 28th Jan and my Full & Final creditors meeting approaches. Dearly hope its accepted. It certainly wont be the end of my problems as I still have to find a permanent job, but it would be a start on the right road.

Seems strange that I have worried consistantly over many years about my debt and making money, when one of my biggest fears should of been that of losing my job, which hadn't even crossed my mind until it happened a few months ago.

Anyway its all down to my creditors now....here's hoping they see my offer as acceptable.....its certainly the best I can do.

Ironic that I may infact be able to close my IVA, which I entered due to my debt, by getting myself further into debt with my son.

Its a strange cycle and one I hope I may close by getting out of my IVA, securing permanent employment and repaying my Son.....until then, even if I eventually receive a coveted Closure Certificate, I will not be truly & fully debt free.

Good luck all.

Well got a call around 11am from the wonderful Nikki (who has been my contact for many months at Melanie Giles company). Creditors have accepted my F & F offer....so now just have to wait for the PPI to be cleared and hopefully get my Closure Certificate in the not too distant future.

A permanent job would be the icing on the cake but at least I can (hopefully) finally put my IVA behind me and move a step forward to getting my life back on track.

I must admit although I'm very relieved to be ending my IVA, I have never seen the IVA as a hindrance or major inconvenience....it was a neccessatity and a financial repayment vehicle of sorts to end the spiral of debt I had got myself into.

My only regret throughout the last 4 years has been that I did not seek expert assistance from the likes of Melanie and others as knowledgeable on this forum earlier, instead of thinking I knew better and trying to get myself out of debt by digging the hole even deeper.

I owe a massive debt of gratitude to Melanie and her team, who have not only steered me through my IVA but have also over the period ensured I recieved expert advice and assistance. They have literally been my saviours. Of course I have also been helped immensely by my Son, without whose generosity I would not of been able to make such a F & F offer. He really has put his financial interests to one side in order to assist me so much. My next aim will be to repay him one day.

I wish everyone on this forum and also future participants the best of luck in the world. Everyone has been so kind and understanding and be assured this forum will be a part of my life forever.

Thanks again everyone and best wishes to all.

Regards

Pennyless x
