Hi everyone. I am at the beginning of a long road ahead and I need to make sure I make the right decision and choose the right company. I have had a look at the reviews. I have spoken to VIncent Bond and Cleardebt. Both think I have a good chance with an IVA. Does anyone on here have any good things to say about Vincent Bond??

Vincent Bond are a very reputable company as are Cleardebt. Speak to as many companies as you feel you need to to make sure you are happy moving forward. Its a long road ahead as you say and you want to make sure you start out on the best foot.

I agree with Tina. Go with whoever you are most comfortable with but Vincent Bond are a highly respected company and not to be confused with the ambulance chasers. Andy Davie is very well respected in the industry and works for Vincent Bond.

Hi - I can only speak for Cleardebt but they have been great with me and my IVA was approved end of March, time will tell as to how they are longterm but from the initial phone call - i had no problems.

we went with Melanie Giles, spoke to lovely Tina who was very patient and helped calm me/us when we needed it.

Mel comes highly recommended, as do VB and Cleardebt and also McCambridge Duffy who also post on here.

It is all down to who you feel comfortable with.

We are with cleardebt and cannot praise them enough. They helped us when we had a problem with hubby's car last year and they have always been helpful and non-judgmental. I do believe that you get a feeling of comfort and of being at ease and that's who you need to go with. Not that I'll EVER need another, but I'd go back to cleardebt!

Vincent Bond and others mentioned all have a good presence and reputation amongst the forum members. All very professional, non-judgemental.

Always worth taking a look at www.iva.com to get a list of companies and some reviews. You'll know when you've found the right IP as you'll feel comfortable and most of all make sure they're contactable. x
