I have been trying to call my IP to find out the creditors that had said no and if the meeting will still go ahead on the 7th, I know its not actually a meeting just creditors sending in their votes ( which would have been good if they had told me all the votes are in and my offer was accepted) anyway I feel less angry now and with just 36months left cos I am not taking any 6 months break, I am not in difficulty at the moment, I just feel the creditors will be short changed if I was paying 390 a month and now I am going to lose an income of £400 a month, if they do a variation meeting they wont even get £50 per month that why I spoke to the third party who kindly agreed the initial £8000. Anyway, I will update everyone with the outcome of my new and improved offer. Thanks Foggy and Kallis

Foggy wrote:Ah, right ..... so your creditors were hoping to get around £18720 over the term (including the extra 12 months for equity). I can see that they would think £8k on the low side --- but should also take the toll on your health into some account.
Ah (agaiun) sorry -- in your first post you said you were two years in, so I assumed 3 years left, plus 12. You always have to factor in the 12 months, unless you can prove less than £5k equity, so your first offer would have been measured against them getting ( with your months left) £14k, so the new offer seems to have a better chance.

Full and Final offer meeting on the 07/02/18, two days more and I have not been so nervous all my life, especially after being told it was rejected before the actual meeting. I asked my IP who refused and was told Evershed management, I don't owe this company but I guess they have either bough the debt or they manage the debt. I have given them a revised offer of £10,000 instead of £14,000 they would get if allowed to run its course.
I asked my IP to find out from this Evershed if it is acceptable to them, he has sent them an email but no reply, I guess I would just wait and see on the 7th.
I will keep the forum updated as soon as I hear anything, thanking everyone for their advice and everyone just starting out on their IVA, it may look like a long 6 years but before you know it its almost done.

Hi All
Got the below email from my IP today in response to my question of what the Evershed thought of my new offer. Strangely enough they were asking question about equity in my home. But my IP said he answered them without needinf to consult me..i wonder what they wanted to know. 2 days to ff meeting and all this..wow. but am going keep hoping for the better on the 7th whilst preparing for the worst.
I'm emailing you again to let you know that I’m still in negotiations with Eversheds about Wednesday’s variation.
They had some questions today about the equity in your property which I’ve been able to answer but I’m still waiting for their final decision on the third party lump sum.
I’ll continue to monitor this tomorrow and let you know when I’ve had a decision from them.

t will feel a little surreal at first, but, you are debt free -- owe nothing -- and the lessons will stick for a long time. Over 4 years on I still live as though I am in an IVA and have savings for what must be like the first time since I was about 13 and in the Tufty Club !
Well Done !
