After Consumal Proposal is finished

Posted on Friday, September 21, 2007

Question: Just wondering if any of the creditors (secured) are aloud to come back after the consumer proposal. I have paid into the propasal for three years now. The proposal is finished and I have received a nasty letter from one of the creditors stating that I still need to pay the debt. How is this possible???

Answer: All unsecured creditors (like credit cards) are included in your proposal. They cannot pursue you once the proposal is completed.

A secured creditor, such as a car loan or house mortgage, would not be paid as part of your consumer proposal, so yes, if you don't pay your car loan, they can pursue you.

I assume that you are refering to an unsecured creditor, so we suggest you contact your trustee and ask them to send a letter to the creditor advising that the proposal has been completed, and that should make them stop calling.
