    Loans after Personal Insolvency

    Happy to offer our experience..we entered a PIA in 2020 for 12 months. Had our mortgage with a vulture fund and due to increasing variable rates we applied for a switch and were accepted by Bank Of Ireland in 2023. Also a separate credit union home improvement loan. Plenty of hope !
