Taking out cash after being told court date?

Hi all.

I've filled out my BR forms and have been given my court date (Friday the 13th!):rolleyes:

I have drawn out cash that was available on a credit card to pay the court fees, and I have also drawn out cash from my current account. I have taken out £300 over my overdraft limit to cover cost of living while I get a new bank account set up etc.

Is this within the rules or will I get into trouble with the OR for doing it?

Thanks :beer:

    If you did it after you were given the date I think they may ask you a few questions.
