    Keep us informed:T I'm sure you will;)

    I don't know what you mean :A But I'm sure I will too ;)

    Everything filled in now, just got to sort out my pension stuff (oh my god now there's a complete mindfield!!) In future I will keep any paperwork anyone sends me to avoid having problems such as now where I don't know anything about anything cos I've thrown it all away!! :mad:

    I'm fully expecting a BRU cos I paid my dad back a large sum of cash (£2400 from a surrendered policy) back in April this year. But at that time I was happy to carry on paying my debts through my DMP as my earnings had increased and I wasn't for one second expecting an extra £20k debt due to a loss on my house sale!! But still, they may not see it that way and see me as favouring him:confused: At the end of the day my parents have done a lot to help me out (even paying my BR fees) and I'd rather see the large corporations out of money than my family. Banks are insured against their losses, my parents didn't take out an insurance policy when they lent me lots of cash and had I not paid them back, I probably could've kissed any future relationship with them goodbye!!

    If you repaid £2,400 and he's just returned £500 of that to you then you've only repaid £1,900 if it comes down to it.

    Thanks hun :) Nah my dad is going with me but if I'm honest I'd prefer to go on my own, having my initial chat with the OR with my dad there will just be embarrassing! :o
