IVA Customer Testimonials
Mr and Mrs Young were struggling with payments of £420 per month on debts of £22,000. They contacted National Debt Relief to see how we could help. After calling us we identified an IVA as their best course of action.
We setup the IVA, got their creditors to agree and they made repayments of £220 per month. After making 60 monthly payments the remaining £8,800 was written off leaving them Debt Free.
Why use National Debt Relief? A little bit about us

We do not charge upfront fees for proposing the scheme on your behalf. You will pay nothing until your creditors accept your proposal. If for any reason your creditors do not accept your proposal you will pay nothing. We will even help you to find an alternative solution.
Individual Voluntary Arrangements (IVAs)
If you are struggling with your debt repayments there is government legislation available, called an IVA, which could help you to write off debt you cannot afford. It is a type of "Debt Forgiveness Program".
Under this government initiative you need to show that you cannot afford your debts. This is done by showing that your monthly living costs including debt repayments are more than your monthly income.
You agree to pay a monthly amount that you can afford and at the end of the plan any remaining debt is forgiven and written off. On average, our clients achieve a debt write off between 60-70% of their debt.

IVA Customer Testimonials
"...Words really cannot do justice to how you have changed the life of my family and myself for the better. To even consider that in 59 months (the typical length of one of my numerous loans) I will actually be debt free and beholden to no one is something I never thought could happen to me. Anyway, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU..."
Mr Y, Devon
"...I want to thank your company for the help it has given my husband and myself. When we got into debt I didn't know which way to turn, I was borrowing money to pay the debt off and the interest rate was killing us, I saw your advert in the local paper, rang you…..we couldn't believe people like you exist and you sorted everything out for us.From the bottom of our hearts we thank you..."
Mr & Mrs S, London
