Help with BR Forms - BR Tomorrow

Hi all,

Going BR tomorrow ARGH!!!!

On the BR Forms it asks how much cash you have in hand, well i cleared my co-op account today (just incase it gets frozen) should i declare this as its for my bills?

Does the Clerk at the court check your forms and if you have filled in anything incorrectly do they inform you?

Thanks

Unluckey

    I put down the figure that was actually in the bank, i did mention any cash I actually had in my hands as mine too was ear marked for bills!

    The clerks at the court will go through the forms and get you to sign them there and will also amend any mistakes yeah - I had a couple - I think everyone does!!

    Good luck for tomoro1
  • Thanks, well no money in the bank its all cash in hand!!!! some earmarked for BR payment!!!

    I asked the clerk and told her that I had £20 quid for food and petrol and she told me to zero as the money was needed for living
