Hi all , just want to vent off a little and seek your views
I started my IVA in Oct 2011 the duration was 72 months with and addition 12 months for the equity release .
In Oct 19 I paid my last monthly payment, got a confirmation from .. yes wait for it you know who .. Apiture . That shows I had made 84 monthly payments, not a single missed payment and all I &E review submitted on time
In Dec I contacted them just to get a idea on completion dates , I was informed again by email that completion will be in early Jan 19
Ok here’s the kick in the teeth . Today I receive a letter from apiture date 28 November 18 ?
It is effectively the annual report , to my horror the report is missing 11months payments and indicates I am 11 months in arraers
Even worse the Supervisor states : arrangement may not progress to full implementation
As you can imagine, the stress this as caused is unmeasurable,
How can this be ,
I have emailed them tonight and will try phoning but they very often do not answer
I am hoping this is a critical error at their end
As anyone else been in a situation like this , don’t know where to turn now .. I honestly thought after 84 months the light was at the end of the tunnel
It will be an error. Call them first thing, insist on speaking to a supervisor and explain...don't be fobbed off with anything. You have paid 84 payments - ask them to explain which 11 payments they believe they have not had, then get your bank statements together and prove it to them ...
Am pretty confident it will be resolved quite quickly.

There is a solution for everyone .... Just need to stay positive !
I agree with Luluj -- this sounds like an error on their part (not unheard of). In any event you will be able to prove your payments if needs be with bank statements showing them all going out.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014
After 2 emails and over 1 hour on the phone I finally got through to an adviser , after some let’s say dogged debate ., I final got confirmation that it was a admin error ...I went back into work with a spring in my step , however I was not prepared for the email I recieved not 20 min later ...
