  • If the root cause of the debt problems is gambling, then IMO it is not unreasonable for the Insolvency Service to seek reassurance that the addiction issues are being addressed.
    The best way to achieve this is with a F2F interview.

    Agree totally - and if you are seeking help with any addiction problems then it does go in your favour with the OR and can lead to a reduction in length of a BRO/BRU.

    Realise that the OP is on a DRO, but I'm assuming that it will be a similar process.

    Thats a very cryptic post elfieb, If you have found the funds for BR, ok, if you mean something else, PM me, as its not worth that
    Thats it, i am done, Blind-as-a-Bat has left the forum, for good this time, there is no way I can recover this account, as the password was random, and not recorded, and the email used no longer exits, nor can be recovered to recover the account, goodbye all …………. :(
