    When you have to send off for a copy of the credit report do you get charged for it?

    To Scarlet: so you managed to finally get the table and chair outside then :p

    Depends on who you do your DRO with, you may get a form that can allow you to apply for free.
    Alternatively, if you have access to a printer do it through the website. It's free for the first 30 days so just remember to cancel your account before the 30 days is up. It takes a week at most to the process online, can take 4 weeks or so via post

    I printed one off when I looked for free which is now dated April 20th will that be ok?
    It was CCCS that sent me a form, doesn't say anything about payment on it.

    Everything will be ok in the end, and if it isn't ok then it isn't the end :)

    I'm on2 them already. On Monday I received all my paperwork back with a covering letter telling me they had not received my paperwork (?) :mad: So yesterday I sent the same paperwork back via special delivery..........at a cost of £5.89 (ridiculous!) with my own covering letter, explaining that I was now in2 week 8, that they'd sent all my paperwork back with strange letter, that I was now at the end of my tether with pressure from my creditors & how I'd appreciate their help in finalising the application a.s.a.p. I've looked online 2day & the letters been signed 4, so now I guess I wait 2 hear back from then, with regards 2 receiving my barcoded letter & 2 update my balances. Did I hear sum1 say u can have the barcode sent via email? I hope so. It's been a long haul, but hopefully i'm near the end.........stay tuned ;)
