Hi! For 3 years I was with Blair Endersby and they have now passed all their clients to Grant Thornton. I have never heard of this company - can you tell me if they are a reliable IP - a rating of 1 to 10 would suffice!

Hi and welcome.

They are a very large and reputable company. They have a representative who posts on here as well

Hi Paul GT are very well regarded so you are in safe hands, although they do seem to have taken on a lot of work in the last year or two so some posters have had a little difficulty getting answers they need to things promptly, but I am sure this will sort itself out in time

GT seem to be the same at responding as DFD were when they took over a few compaines too, it'll soon be sorted and thier response times will increase, but GT often post on the forums here and seem to have a very good name!

It's been over 6 weeks to sort out my second year I&E with GT, when I was with B&E it only took 2 weeks at the most. Judgement is reserved...
Last Payment made 04/12/14. Completion Certificate 25/7/15. IVA company GT. No Issues

Hi, I too was a BE client transferred to GT & I have to rate them 10/10. They also have a representative that posts on the forum.

My reviews used to take up to 9 weeks with BE to complete & I personally was very glad GT took over my IVA. I've had some horrendous car problems this year & GT responded & authorized a payment break straight away.

GT took over mine from Accuma and they were a LOT better.

GT have had their "moments" but they were still very good, especially at teh end of my IVA, where they couldn't have processed stuff any quicker than they did!! :)

They seem to be pretty good, just hope they are increasing their staff numbers with the addition in work they are taking on.

Karol is the contact on here for GT and seems very quick at answering problems that forum members have had.

If you look hard enough someone will have a bad word to say about every company,as its often easier to slag off firms than it is to praise them. If someone IVA's runs smoothly they are unlikely to search for a forum to sing about how good they are..........however when things go wrong people are quick to tell the world.

iva.com has some great real customer reviews and is without doubt the best place to go for a mark of what people think about x y or z.
