An Individual Debt Agreement is another term for an Individual Voluntary
Arrangement, or IVA.
An Individual Debt
Agreement can resolve your debt problem completely without getting yourself
into more debt with a secured debt consolidation loan. IVAs are managed
plans which will write off most of your debt immediately then divide
the reminder into chunks to be repaid every month.
An Individual Debt
Agreement is is tailor made to your specific needs, and for this reason
it's quite rare for any two debt management plans to be the same. The
programme is drafted up by a qualified Insolvency Practitioner who will
look at your situation in order to arrive at the plan for your own requirements
and those of your household.
In order to be eligible
for an Individual Debt Agreement your income needs to be greater than
your expenditure. By how much this needs to be really depends on the
particular debt management plan in question and the company administering
it. So you may get a better deal at one company rather than another.
But our whole-of-market approach solves that problem as we will match
you with the plan for your own situation.

Please
be aware that figures entered need to be accurate by law, and to give
the best service to you. It is extremely important that you budget for
all necessary expenditure including rent or mortgage, council tax and
utility bills, etc., and any other necessary outgoings related to the
upkeep of your household and inrelation to any specific circumstances
that may relate to you. This website only collects data on behalf of
debt management professionals, from which it will receive affiliate
remuneration for data collection only and does not itself engage in
any debt management services. Other debt management options are available
and may be more suitable. People entering into an IVA or debt management
will have this entered on their credit profile and this may affect their
ability to get credit in the short term or even in the long term in
some cases. It is free to apply from this website; you will be given
advice by debt management professionals and a 'cooling off' period,
by law, to decide whether or not the debt management plan is suitable
for you, and you should be aware that a fee will be chargeable upon
a successful arrangement, as with any commercial transaction. Failure
to meet the repayments on an IVA or any debt management programme may
result in serious consequences, including, but not limited to, bankruptcy.
Bankruptcies, CCJs and similar defaults will be entered into a public
register and will remain there for a statutory period of not less than
six (6) years.
