How far are you into your IVA? If you have been in the IVA for more than 2 or 3 years then it may be worth sticking with it even though it will mean giving up all of your disposable income.
Having said that I can understand how BR is an attractive option as you will only pay 50-70% of your disposable income so will have some money left over at the end of each month.
