Hi iva [:)]
just wanted to welcome you and say it looks good to me, but I'm not an expert and I am sure one will be along soon to offer more light.
Good luck.

Sounds good to me. They would be stupid not to accept.

If you are going to make the offer yourself, I would personally try at round the 30% mark - you could then save your family a little money.

Plus of course the fees to cover the set up of the IVA -

However what are your personal circumstances and what is your DI?

If they can make a full and final payment and can get it all out of the way at once, that's even better!

Good luck, and let us know how you get on.

Hi
It will depend on your personal situation and your disposible income.
If you are clearly insolvent then your creditors may well be attracted to a one off payent and write off the rest of your debt. If you pay over 15k on 20k of debt your creditors may receive around 12k, a 60p dividend.
Just be aware that your credit file will be ruined for six years if you do go down this road
