The trustee??
I have been given the impression that after your BR the OR will assign you a trustee to assess your assets and distribute among creditors.

Last minute blitz before sequestration
I am applying for LILA sequestration very soon. Now, an obvious temptation would be to have a wee last minute spend on the credit card cos it's never getting paid back anyway...nothing too extravagant bearing in mind that although I have 30k debt I also have 13k available credit...was thinking just a wee holiday costing…

I knew this BR was going too smoothly...MASSIVE blow yesterday :(
So for the past 6 months I have been thinking how easy this BR stuff was and that it hadn't really affected me at all apart from needing a new bank account.

So, I wondered if it would be helpful for people to share their views of what it means to them? OK, we probably won't all agree, but we might end up understanding…
