Both our IVAs were approved yesterday and the only thing that was changed was that mine was made 6 yrs because of the low dividend. To say I'm relieved is an understatement. We can plug the home phone back in now.
I'd like to say a big thank you to Samsung for the auto-reject feature on my phone

Well done great news on IVA acceptance.
Yes indeed plug the home phone in and tell them you're in an IVA and eventually those calls will stop, sometimes it can take a while to filter through though.
I hope your journey to debt freedom is a very smooth one for you.

To be honest the phone calls weren't that bad for me but I know they got to my wife.. Here's a top tip, tell them all that you never answer security questions over the phone. It keeps the calls short. Or get a mobile that has an auto-reject list, that way you only answer one call from each..

I've changed my phone number before any calls start. Not given my new one to anybody other than son and daughter who know not to give it out. I was prepared to pay but BT did it free of charge when I complained about the number of PPI marketing calls I was getting.
