scared stiff

I finally decided upon going bankrupt a few week ago, but im struggling to get together the money for my fees.
although now my debtors are calling work all the time and are telling my collegues what it is regarding which is highly embarrassing! how can i put them off until i can find my bankruptcy fee???

There are lots of letter templates around the debt board to tell them to bog off.

Any chance of getting cash off a credit card or overdraft to cover the fees? ORs tend to turn a blind eye to this.

just taking forever to sort out my fees

may be worth a shot if you have NO means of saving the fees..

There are a number of charities that may help with bankruptcy costs and fees depending on eligibility (examples below).

• Severn Trent Trust Fund and other water trusts
• EDF Energy Trust
• Royal British Legion
• Some Trade Unions
  • Trades Union Congress
  • Union Finder from Worksmart
• Turn2Us enables you to search for charities

Please note you will usually need the assistance of a recognised Debt and Money Advice Worker in completing applications relating to the above.
