  • Ah but , by the time you see the OR you have already been declared bankrupt!!!

    Dont get ya... I was letting him know about the judge, not the OR...
  • Just a thought -

    My Mother is nearly 74. All I have to hope for is that she doesn't pop her clogs whilst I am undischarged - otherwise the OR will be claiming all her cash and the house that I live in!!

    Aww poor mum ! :o
  • It is a bit surreal... But a new life has started and I must get on with it. Cant be dwelling on it all... After all.. Life is still normal after B.


    I can't wait now to get it all out the way! and then start a fresh next year! think I might then paint my kitchen might even be able to afford some tiles when its all over! (got tiling wallpaper at the mo cos it was in the sale cheap a couple of years ago)

    Well... If you have gambled a lot, they may give you an extended discharge, That means that you will be bankrupt a while longer,... Doesnt mean anything, just that you cant get credit over 500, be a director etc... They may not mind.

    Then if you have exess income they will ask for a % of that, paid for 3 years.

    No, it wasnt a great deal, only a few hundred over a period of time.

    They set out the amount to pay back at the start do they not? And does this change over the period of the three years?

    Anyway, collected the papers at lunchtime. got to return them and they said I would probably see the judge that week. They did, however, say that if I left the IVA payments the creditors would make me bankrupt thus saving the fee? There has got to be a catch there surely?
  • Its for 2 of us hun....

    The birthday holiday thing is simply a 'lets see if we can' as said its only draft and the insoolvency service sent me those things that we could claim ffor... We both went B remember, so there are 2 of us in the budget...

    Im not sure if J has ever looked at the yearly thing... I think its juts that its a lot £95 all at once...


    I was allowed £20 per month for "incidentals" which would be £40 for two.

    The prescription thing is such a lot cheaper, though. Just a thought!

    right i emailed experian at 4 oclock this morning and filed a dissociation but still haven't had any sort of reply so me thinks i will just give them a ring, i have made a start on the br online forms and am 15% complete lol, I had a letter this morning saying that because i had agreed to make pro rata payments and i had not sent them on time this month that the deal has been terminated and that if no payment is recieved within 48 hours it is being passed on the debt collection agency - my br date is the 30th
    Do you think they will be knocking on my door before that?

  • They have a very good video section though that answers a lot about bankruptcy.

    Yes I agree!

    To be honsest then, I really would overlook it.. I wouldnt put coal on the fire.

    The IVA making you bankrupt, Im not too sure how that works, someone else may know.. But ill bet it takes ages to go through.

    The IPA starts when its organised (a couple of months after B) then lasts exactly 36 months.
