I hope CB is alright??

hiya guys all done and dustied - would have come on here earlier but had to go to the coop to get something nice for lunch to celebrate. Have got to say NOW I feel relieved and NOW I feel bankrupt and the whole pressure has gone woooohooooooo.

Well call was scheduled for 9am and OR called at 8.55, apologising straight away for the early call but she had a docs appointment at 9.50! What a lovely lovely lady I could not have asked for better, so was on phone for 50 mins and she called back when she got back to speak to OH which was a 20min call BRILLIANT.

Went through the form - she is not interested in our car or things in home so will be sending a letter to confirm that. Went through our creditors and approx dates and generalised what used money for DID NOT WAFFLE!!!! Then the soa which I was dreading cos both br and I did a joint one for myself on the pc but then seperate ones for the br forms - she was like ooooh you live together so forget the seperate ones lets just go through joint income and expenses as a whole BRILLIANT so much easier. I do not have an IPA attached to me as on benefits but OH does but only for £60 we have a surplus of about £250. Also she did not question any of my expenses as we went through them I told her exactly what they were for and got things like holiday, emergancy, kids clubs, broadband, etc will post soa form in a mo on here so you can see. Then went through why we got to this point and she was very understanding and lovely about everything, also they are getting onto my old bank to get my benefits paid back to me which is extra fab news.

Oh am sooooo happy its all over

good luck everyone who has it to come and hope everyone elses interviews are as good.

soa to follow:

I think I would prefer a life raft - when I sink I really sink!!
I suppose it is OK to chat on here while we wait for cb?
I can't get over the bit in my letter from the OR which says that the interview is with a member of staff ..... Do they still have YTS?

Congrats CB - you are back (from the CO-OP) !!!!!! LOL We have all been on tenterhooks and you were out ..... shopping!!
