I made my first payment 3 months after I went BR. I was told at the interview I would get one, so I chased them up about it - the sooner it started the sooner it would finish!
Tomorrow is a mystery, yesterday is history, today is the present, a gift to make the most of.
Thanks for the quick reply Skippy, am I right in thinking, that the cash that will be taken in an IPA is yours for the the time it takes to set one up? or is the IPA backdated to the time of your BR?
