THOMAS CHARLES LAUNCHES CREDIT REPAIR GUIDE

- 99% IVA acceptance level for the debt solutions consultancy that goes that extra mile -

(London, 28/3/06) Thomas Charles (www.thomascharles.com), the leading debt solutions consultancy, has introduced a new range of customer features, supporting its positioning as one of the most successful and progressive debt help companies. A Credit Repair Guide and online media clips provide clients with even more useful information in their battle against debt, whilst online tracking allows clients to keep abreast of their IVA progress via the website. Thomas Charles has a 99% success rate for clients being accepted for an IVA (Individual Voluntary Arrangement), compared to an industry average of between 60% and 80%.

The newly-available, 20-page Credit Repair Guide is a comprehensive summary to help clients with a poor credit history protect and repair their credit file. It explains how a credit file works and what can be done to improve a credit rating. Consumers can download it from the Thomas Charles website and also from the leading online portal for impartial IVA information, www.iva.co.uk. Thomas Charles has also added a range of media clips to its website to help clients understand what, for many, is still a mystery. In the clips, James Falla, managing director of Thomas Charles, explains, in simple language, the differences between bankruptcy, an IVA and an Informal Repayment Plan.

Falla commented:

“Helping clients resolve a serious debt problem via an IVA is only the start of the process. As with bankruptcy, an IVA will be recorded on a client’s credit file and will affect their future credit applications. This Credit Repair Guide helps them to understand what a credit file is and have the confidence and knowledge to remove problem entries, repair defaults and to increase the positive entries on their files, thereby improving their credit rating and helping ensure successful future applications for credit.”

Thomas Charles already has a highly successful modus operandi for its clients which includes: a dedicated account and support manager, comprehensive help with the necessary paperwork, face-to-face meetings with a local Insolvency Practitioner and an unsurpassed knowledge of the industry that results in an IVA acceptance level of 99%.

Consumer borrowing is now at a record level of £1.13 trillion. DTI statistics show that IVAs have nearly doubled in the last year, up 95%. It is estimated that 200,000 people face personal insolvency in 2006.
