Hi - we are rapdily approaching our 2nd review. Suddently we have started receiving letters from creditors and companies they have passed the debt to and also statements from the Halifax asking for a minimum payment of the total balance!! I didn't have this problem at the first review and wondered if this was normal practice?? I will be forwarding them on to our IP just in case there is anything they need to do but just thought it was a bit strange!!

Hi Randomlady - your IP needs to contact them to remind them you are in an IVA by the sounds of it! Your IVAa protects you as St75 says so no action can be taken against you however it would be good for the requests for payment to stop! They need to update their records.
Regards

I've not received anything either. I moved over a year ago and my creditors were notified at my annual review last Summer but I assume they haven't updated my accounts. It's wrong on my credit report and the insolvency register too. I could almost disassociate myself from it completely!
Must admit that anything I received now wouldn't bother me as I know I'm protected. The creditor concerned would get a very strongly worded letter back from me!

The Halifax Statement unsettled me a bit but then I thought what can they realistically do??? Nothing.
Finding it quite funny now that one of the creditors has sold on a small debt in the grand scheme of things (was only about £500) and the new company have sent me 6 identical letters for the same amount/account in one week - well that's one way of spending their postage budget but it won't get them any extra money or any quicker!!

If they carry on sending you that amount of letters they'll soon have spent enough on paper and postage to write off what you owe them!

I keep getting emails off Capital one telling me that my latest statement is availabe online!!!
I do get a statement every month off Halifax Loans, but I`ve had nothing off them regarding my visa card and overdraft.

Don't they waste some money on unneccesary letters!
