Hi,

I've just been told by the National Debtline that I'm not eligible for an IVA becasue I have variable rate mortgage. Is this coorect? I can't switch to a fixed rate as my paymnets will go up from £435 to over £1000. Is this correct?

You could always try one or two companys on here and some of them are the best around.

Hi Debs....I would take the other's advice and contact some IP's. I guess you were advised about the variable mortgage because the payments can vary, but I'm sure there's something that can be done. A lot of people who enter IVA's are on fixed starting out, but then the deal ends during an IVA and they cope, so there must be a way forward for you.

Do you have any idea what your disposable income is?

Hi
I can't see why having a variable rate mortgage will preclude you from an IVA. Take a second opinion

I know we are speaking to yoiu about this off-line, but at the end of the day there are options to you which mean that an IVA could be very workable.

Hi there

I am on a variable rate and just got my IVA approved so would not have thought that it was a deciding issue. Try some of the IP's listed on here.

They are awsome!
