Ugh you should not have done that..........
You are not checked up on by anyone, £100 is nothing in the grand scheme of things, you should not have mentioned it, as now they may turn the spotlight on you.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Debt free wannabe, Credit file and ratings, and Bankruptcy and living with it boards.

Oh that’s ok then, keep it that way.
Letters are to be expected, you don’t need to tell anyone about them, especially the IS.
Wait out your 12 months and don’t do anything daft.

Don't forget you can always run stuff past us first. I submit DROs nearly every day. There are other intermediaries on these boards. There are lots of posters who have had them or are currently in one.
There's lots of experience here and we'll always advise in your best interest.0 -
I def will in future , not heard anything back yet x0

Hi all,
I have recently been advised to apply for a DRO via stepchange, I paid the £90 on the barcode on friday at around 4pm and rang step change immediately to advise them, the advisor went through my forms with me and told me he would submit my application, would he have done this right away?
Does anyone know how long it is currently taking to get a decision from the OR?
Is the register updated immediately as soon as the decision is made or just daily, I seem to be checking the register all the time, I am so anxious about things
Thank you0
