PLEASE DON'T USE THIS COMPANY ... EVER

They set me up paying £250 a month for 5 years in 2019, not affordable but I did it somehow. After 2 years they said I could reduce it, but had to increase from 5 to 6 years, I didn't want to extend but ended up agreeing. The following year they reduced it again because their calculations deemed I was paying more than I could afford, but there was no mention if it extending further this time. One of my debtors continued to chase me for their debt for the first year, despite agreeing to the IVA and agreeing not to contact me, all correspondence was forwarded on to deal with, unknowingly I ended up with a CCJ from them in addition to them being included in the IVA, which should never have happened. Creditfix customer service staff called me stupid and said there is no CCJ, then after providing evidence took 6 months for them to finally accept it was in place telling me it would disappear when the IVA was discharged - that is completely incorrect. They then told me it would be removed within 4 weeks, no surprise but 4 months later it's still in place. It has taken over 12 months to raise a complaint, of which I still have not been given a reference number for or an update, yet they expect me to believe my complaint will be resolved in 8 weeks, with 4 weeks already passed. Additionally without my knowledge they have extended the term for a further 1 year and 4 months, increased my monthly amount, said I cannot reduce the term 'because that's not how it works' so I will now be paying almost £4k above the initial debt I went to them with - so much for some of the debt being written off. I have had no choice but to contact a solicitor. Please please if you are considering an IVA research thoroughly and do not under any circumstances use Creditfix they have broken me and I have at times been too low for words.
