(In England anyway hope its the same in Scotland). Hope it all goes well. Will follow you to find out. If you're honest and all your paper work is up to date you have nothing to fear. The official receiver I had was sound! All the best.0 -

Just before christmas I took my head out of the sand and decided that's it. Cancelled DD's and after my bank made a total ****s up of changing my joint account to a single account that was the final straw. £185.00 of bank charges for there error. £38,000 of unsecured debt, I had worked seven day's a week for two years just to treadwater. I know its my fault but after losing my second job I was up the creak without paddle.
Well telephone calls have started, told em all I had been advised by CCCS and Payplan to go BR.... They still had the cheek to ask for the amounts!!!!!
Worst part, them calling me at work. Now I'm ready for them. Have told my colleagues that I am going BR due to marraige breakdown and loss of OT and second job. They are all very understanding. My Boss say's she will tell them no personal calls allowed.
Keep your chin up, my biggest task is raising the fee. So I tell the DCA's to make me bankrupt so I can save on the fee's. That soon puts them in a spin.0 -

Good Luck Broxie. Try not to worry! We stopped our DD's from June-August and then some just this month after duff advice :mad: Anyhoo we're just at the stage of sending our forms away after a failed TD and *touch wood* no scary buisness yet. We moved house in August and the companies have only just found us this week so the letters are starting again. The worst a letter can do is give you a nasty paper cut

I hope things move along quickly for you so you can get it over and done with ASAP!
Any questions just ask and I'll answer as best I can with my experience of the Scottish system.
