    Hi everyone

    I am a litle bit worried as it has been 3 whole days now and still not heard from the OR. Bit of a pain really as I need to know if I can continue using my Coop account :confused: The lady at court said to carry on using it until the OR has been in touch.

    Weekend now so wont hear anything until Monday when I will be on nights :rolleyes: . Do you think I should ring the OR office on Monday if I dont hear anything ??

    Hi YM! I didn't hear anything from the OR about my account for well over a week but you should set your mind at rest and give them a quick call just to make sure it is all ok.

    I carried on using it still with no problems too.

    Hi, yes everything ok thanks, less stressed, was naughty and had a KFC bucket as a treat for dinner! :o But I thought I would because I only spent £100 on shopping this month between Aldi and Iceland when normally Asda costs £120. I probably should have saved it but since my bonus! is safe, we don't have to stretch our finances to breaking point now.

  • I went bankrupt in 2003 and wondered if anyone else had the same experience as me?
    I had a car on HP that was only 2 years old. I was told by the man at cccs that this could not be put in any claims etc as it was hp so is classed as a loan item. Therefore I managed to keep my car and wondered if the same does still apply?
    I am sure many of you also feel this was one of the best days of my life. I walked out of the court feeling free and relaxed which was the first time in years. I know people can sound flippant about it - but the decision to go this route is a very long hard one so the relief after is immence. The weird thing is now I can get better credit than my partner!
    I may have lupus but it doesnt make me useless! :rolleyes: I am a true believer in Karma, and am a typical cancerian. I have a hard outside, but am mushy on the inside.:o

    Hi YM. I would not worry about the OR. I noticed today that 150 people had been made BR at Birmingham since I went on the 2 March 2009. That figure is over two weeks old. It goes without saying that the OR and pals are overwhelmed. If you want a new carreer " Become an Official Receiver";)
