Hi there and welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear that you are feeling so sad, but my motto is that a problem shared is a problem solved!
My personal view, and of course I am just one of the experts on the forum, is that if you are in a Debt Management Plan which is working, with creditors who are sitting back and content to recieve your payments, and with the relatively low level of debts you had, then it may have been better to stay as you were.
I cannot comment on the way you were converted from a DMP to and IVA, but I imagine the debt management company gave you the choice of staying put or changing? Or did you feel pushed into accepting something which you did not really understand?
If you feel that you have been badly advised to your detriment, you can file a complaint with your IP's regulatory body, but will need to submit evidence of the paperwork that you signed to back up any claim.
