Is the IVA still showing on your credit file? Has it been six years since the date of your creditors meeting?
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

Your credit rating will eventually restore itself, but lenders these days are far more savvy and choosy about who they will lend to. It is also quite soon for you to be borrowing again having finished the IVA. Is the money required to purchase something specific?

All defaults ahould be dated on or before the date you entered the IVA and will remain for 6 years even though they are marked as satisfied.

When did you start your IVA?

If the defaults are correctly dated they will fall off in 2017
