We were advised to get credit and use it and pay it all off to show we are capable of doing so and also to try and have a large amount of credit here and there not in use so again we are showing lenders we arent what an iva might portray us to be. It's a very fine and difficult balancing act. Too m...

It is not (should not be) a charge -- it is a Restriction. CF can remove it in a few days by submitting an RX4 to Land Registry.

They can refuse and you cannot challenge it, other than trying to appeal to your IP's good nature. You have agreed, in your proposal, not to seek further credit over £500 without their permission. You are insolvent -- taking further debt from reputable lenders will be nigh on impossible. If your IP ...

Might I suggest a chat with Ryan and / or Shaun. They are two whole of market brokers with experience in adverse credit and both have helped many forum members. They can be contacted through the details in their profile pages here: Ryan : https://www.iva.co.uk/forum/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u...

Thanks Foggy So will I keep getting these for years to come?? Can I get them stopped? They are dated April 2019, 6 months after the completion of my IVA they won't be chasing me for money will they? Thought this was all sorted with being in an iva. As the debts become older they will be less likely...

With some juggling you might even swing a DRO, if you have no assets, only a cheap vehicle (of the banger variety) and can get disposable income down enough. Worth an explortory chat with a DRO intermediary. https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/debt- ... ef-orders/

There are different schools of thought here: One that the good standing of a well run credit account can help build a picture of reliability, which is valid. Another is that by using something designed for those of us with bad credit, we are signposting past problems --- possibly less valid as a squ...

The credit reference agencies get insolvency information from the Insolvency Service. Check that your IVA is still showing as current on the Insolcvency Register, just to make sure. Hi Foggy, Our names are still on the register. However their FAQ, says that when discharged it will remain their for ...

It could be that Max has purchased these debts from the original creditors. Debts are often sold on in mixed auction type lots and the purchaser doesn't know the status of the debt until after purchase --- they pay pennies for them, so take the gamble.

All creditors will be informed by your IP, if they have not already been told. If they contact you --- this is often done by third party collections teams, who are a bit out of the loop --- just tell them you are entering an IVA and give them the IPs details.

The PPI belongs to your creditors and you may have agreed, prior to completion, to co-operate with its recovery. Regardless the IP will expect you to assist. As yet no IP has forced the issue so we do not know how far they would go to get a signature. The possibilities are endless ... they could jus...

It would seem that the refund will actually be yours to keep from that wording.

A brief explanation of why you entered the IVA might be needed .... basically they are interested in your conduct and character. If the debt arose, maybe, gradually and your ability to repay was influenced by outside sources (UK austerity, health, unforseen change in finances) it would be looked on ...

If you give them 3rd party access they can view as and when they wish and do not need to inform you. Personally I would not give access and would send paper copies as and when required.
