With park do you get more in vouchers than you pay in or do you just get whatever value you have paid over?

You just get back what you pay in - either in vouchers or in goods to that value.

Nice to see you OT - hope you and yours are well?

Good idea with the saver account.

Fine thank you Jan.
I think the countdown clock on my phone is going backwards though?
We had no bother getting the account, in fact they set it all up.

Glad you are all fine.

I wonder about my countdown as well - seems not to change quickly these days.

Absolutely Paul.
If i think back 55 months, we were in deep doodoo.
We investigated a dmp but soon realised we would never live long enough to pay it all back.
The iva has been the best thing we ever did and i would never advise anyone to the contrary.
We are in such a better position now, we are in the black at the bank, all the bills are paid on time, apart from the iva and the fact my soul belongs to the building society for another 12 years, we dont owe anybody anything.
My postman is eternaly grateful as he doesn't have to carry a sack full of threatening letters to our door.
