The BBC have asked if we can help find some case studies, they are making a series of programmes called Money Watch, this is what they are looking for:

• Are you currently in an Individual Voluntary Arrangement (IVA) or Debt Management Plan (DMP) and struggling to make these payments?
• Were you told about bankruptcy as a possible solution when you first sought advice on your debts?
• Do you feel that after all it would have been better if you had gone bankrupt?
• Were you given good or bad advice when you entered into the IVA or DMP?
• Do you want to share your story?

My name's Emily and I'm researching a new series for BBC 2 called Money Watch looking at people's real life financial stories across the country. I'd like to hear your experiences about what it's like dealing with debt.

If you're keen this could lead to some filming for the show.

I look forward to hearing from you - my number's [removed] or email's [removed]
