I feel sick. Serves me right really, typed my surname into it and both our names came up only good thing is they havent put my date of birth on but they have my hubby's ha!ha!.just ope nobody i know looks on there for anything as we have an unusual surname, though not the only ones on there.I'm not going to tell hubby though as i dont think he knows this will happen and that anyone can access it, he will only worry and is on anti-depressants already cos of our situation.

i've checked ours once and will lok again in 6 years to see if removed

hi cj

dont worry, i looked on there too after my iva was approved in april!
not going to look again until after my iva completed to make sure names removed! to be honest i wonder if alot of people wont even know the register exists i know i didnt until i started to go through the process of a iva.

good luck, you are on the road to a debt free future!

love barb x

oh,it really is horrible isnt it.i dont think ill be brave enough to look.like you my surname isnt a typical smith or jones ! that register has to be the biggest downside to having an iva.[:(]

Try to forget your name is there--hard I know. I can't see why friends etc would look on the register. I do however think it shouldn't available for any Tom Dick and Harry to view.

We never knew it existed till we joined this forum. I think the only people likely to find it are those having the same difficulties or those touting for business.

Dont worry.

Don't even think about it. I googled our names and nothing came up for the register. Doubt if anyone I know is aware of it, so it's not really worrying me at the moment

its even worse for BR you get named & shamed in the local press!

Defo think that access to the register should be restricted though!

I didn't even know it existed untill our recent troubles.Therefore, I doubt others will unless they share similar experiences.It does give a jolt though seeing names there.When I need to punish myself for the mess I still look.Seen it about 4 times now since last Nov.Cat

I feel the same about the lack of privacy. I did not know it existed until I started the IVA but it's the idea of the address being there that bugs me!! And what makes it worse is that I don't own the address it belongs to someone else as I rent it. I hope the owner doesn't see it. ooops [:I]

Unless he checks the register, and I wouldn't think there would be any reason for him to do this, then he won't see it.

As long as your rent is paid, he shouldn't have a clue.

Yes, thanks Kallis I hope so. But thinking about it I am glad I rent at the moment because if anything goes wrong or breaks down I get it all fixed without any expense from me, all the re-decorating, tiling is done. If I owned my own property I dont know how I could cope with that added expenditure in the IVA ! [:)]

Yes Maz, I know what you mean -our downstairs is in dire need of repainting, but just can't afford the paint at the moment!

Hi Jan

Could you not do it bit by bit, get one room done first, then gradually get more cans of paint over time, I know it's probably difficult on a tight budget and I have just heard now on the news that energy bills are going to get even more expensive that doesn't help! I know I could not cope with the mileage I do for work.

Yes, renting has some advantages as I am getting the whole place re-painted next week, badly needs it! and also the bathroom re-tiled all because I complained as rent went up. Well I cant' complain with that I suppose. Just hope he doesn't read that register!![:D]

Maz

We probably will, it's just a case of sorting out the colour we want now![:)]
