Debt FAQ's
- Q: What is an IVA?
A: An IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement) is a debt solution whereby, faced with the probable alternative of going bankrupt, your creditors agree to write off part of your debts so that you only have to make monthly repayments which you can afford - usually for a period of five years. An IVA can be an effective solution if you have serious debts and owe more than £15,000. But there are other ways. Talk to us to find out more.
- Q: Which debt solution is best for me?
A: This all depends on the nature of your debts and your individual circumstances. But however much you owe , there will be a debt solution that can help you work towards clearing your debts. Call us to hear more about IVA's, consolidation loans, management plans and other options. - Q: How do I finance the costs of debt?
A: This will depend upon the terms of the solution you choose. But we can advise you about what each solution involves so that you can be sure that you choose one that's right for you. - Q: Who do I go to for further debt advice?
A: As we're a not for profit organisation, and therefore impartial, the Debt Advice Trust will be able to give you all the advice you need. If you decide upon a particular solution, we can also recommend a reputable and trustworthy provider from our Approved Panel.
