An IVA is a debt solution for people with debts above £10,000 of unsecured debt to two or more creditors. Contacting an IVA helpline can be a route to enter an IVA, however it can also mean you miss out on other debt solutions, which may be more applicable.
Debt Support Trust and our UK charity advisors provide a full range of debt solutions, from general debt and money advice, through to IVAs and Bankruptcies.
Our advice team is trained to provide helpful tailored advice regarding all applicable debt solutions you could be suitable for.
IVA Helpline
When you contact an IVA helpline, that only recommends IVAs, then other debt solutions can be overlooked. Our not for profit advisors focus on empowering you to make an informed decision so you can decide which debt solution is best for you.
To do this you can complete a debt analyser to get in touch, or call 0800 085 0226.
We don’t solely focus on IVAs, although it is one option we discuss with you. There is also debt management plans and other informal arrangements. In some instances, bankruptcy is the best debt solution, which our advisors can explain too.
Some IVA helplines solely focus on IVAs when other solutions may be more appropriate. It’s our intention to ensure you get every available advice. Once you’ve received the advice you can ask your debt advisor as many questions as you wish to help you determine which debt solution is best.
