Sorry forgot to add he will be staying with us.0

First thing - has he taken professional advice from one of the free debt charities? The judge oftens asks for this at the hearing so it is important.
Also, is he sure that BR is the right option - there are alternatives such as DMP, IVA, DRO that might be better suited for him?0 -
Hi JCS1 thanks for your reply,
He was advised by the cab debt councillor. He had them all explained and was then advised that bankruptcy was most likely the best way. He had been silly before and joined a paying DMP who basically took his money and gave him no help.0 -

It's good that he's taken professional advice. Will look at SOA next.0 -

Have made a few comments, see what other people think and then see what the figures look like.0 -
Thanks for your comments, your right about his age and the fact he has no claims is why the insurance is high. The commute is a fair way but will make sure he keeps the reciepts thats a good point.0
