Comment: I am having trouble with Kingsgate now, since June, they have not communicated with me and they are greedy in sense of wanting money. They care of there % intake that they take not about people and circumstances. They rather leave u high n dry for u too be worse. They didnt tell me my student loan was not included in IVA until it was approved by creditors. I would never recommend them to any one not even my worst enemy. I have made formal complai

Comment: Kingsgate put up the monthly of an IVA with no bearing on the clients income. They also do this at random points and make the IVA unnafordable, they don't care if it fails as long as they get their fees.

Comment: How long was this person in the IVA for? What people don't realise with KG is that if your disposible income increases, you WILL have to increase your payments by 50% of the difference since the start of the IVA (if original DI £100, DI at Year 1 is £200, so you now increase your payments by £50). If you earn more, you pay more ... common sense!!

Comment: I have no doubt that the reviewer is genuine, but some more detail would be nice so we could see exactly what Kingsgate did. At the very least, it looks like communication is very poor.

    Good Points
    Very informative with lots of useful information. A lot of reviews on firms that really help understand their customer service and ability. The reviews appear to be genuine as they offer interesting insights. Didn't really use the the map but looks impressive!
    Bad Points
    The site is a bit cluttered and sometimes hard to navigate around.
    General Comments
    A useful site that is free to use and full of useful information about IVAs. If you are thinking of doing an IVA then this is a must use site.
