Posted - 23 July 2012 : 23:58:34 I have a DMP with what I thought was a well respected company (director used to comment on this site), but I didnt ever sign anything. I have been paying 500 a month and they have been paying minimum payments to my creditors, in order to build up a pot to negotiate settlement. My problem is that they have in excess of £3000 and have not returned my calls or emails despite the answering service promising they will get in touch with a particular individual. I have requested that they update me on the state of play - who they have approached for settelment etc, but I have heard nothing for months regarding my accounts. I have now started getting letters again from debt recovery companies, often with very inflated balances. My concern obviously is that they have been spirited away with my money, which will leave me with no money and debts. What recourse do I have if I am unable to get to speak with anyone from the company. I have deliberately not named them, as I am still hoping for a positive resolution. |

Last IPA payment made on 28th June 2010 and I'm now looking forward to getting married in September 2012 - I'm proof that you can go BR and come out the other side. |

Daniel has been posting on here for a while now, he just doesn't come on that often.

Posted - 26 July 2012 : 09:00:01 Fair enough. Just thought I'd mention it, as it had been done for Rob.

Posted - 26 July 2012 : 06:34:23 Daniel Griffiths doesn't mind his name being known, I believe he works, or has worked, in the industry.
He also posts on the sister forum under his name.

Posted - 26 July 2012 : 02:10:25 Just a thought,
Rob had his name changed, would Daniel not benefit?

Posted - 26 July 2012 : 01:48:19 Daniel, my sentiments as well, Hence also wanting more independent advice, even if that's to seek help to recover funds as well.
Personally, waiting means potentially losing more money :-(

Posted - 26 July 2012 : 00:42:24 Hi Tina
I have no idea who the firm is however there is a risk here in what you are doing, and I would have serious concern that a private enterprise who is holding your funds are not returning your calls, you never know if one day they are unable to return calls as they may not be there anymore. The principle of a full and final settlement is easy to understand and although no guarantees, can be successful but why cant you do it still holding the funds,why do the funds have to be in someone else bank account, or if you think you will spend them why not trust a relative to hold them until creditors are willing to accept a full and final at least you will have peace of mind because if you have started having letters from creditors you may as well pay them yourself minimum payments |

Posted - 25 July 2012 : 21:30:42 Hi Tina,
Is it worth getting further advice as well? Maybe from the CAB or other insolvency practitioners?
I only say this incase the worst happens and this company fail you.
Not a nice thought I know, but it cant do any harm to seek other options and be further informed?
