Recycle as pet bedding. I'm still getting them too.
Definitely don't waste your time or money on them, ( i can't believe i've just said that ), but it is hard to believe its ever going to be over.

Thank you my friends x
Kettles on and shredder is at the ready!

Dont worry. The will stop (most of them)
If you still get them in a couple of months then just email your OR and advise that the clowns are still contacting you.

Unfortunately it seems to be a never ending cycle, which creditors won't leave go. I'm told lots of these letters are computer generated anyway. Bring back, real, people.
Its months and months down the line from my br now. But the ' fight ' is still ongoing, as creditors still continue their never ending pursuit. Its not all over yet, as they try to engage me in new debt, ( relative to the old ), but this time, forewarned is forarmed. Bring it on. Just you come and get me.
Wow, what fighting talk
And yes, i do feel guilty saying this, because i owe money, i still can't repay, but one of these days, theres got to be closure.Debt free - Is it a state of mind? a state of the Universe? or a state of the bank account?

Thanks for that. I don't know where it came from. But maybe theres so much i've got to be strong and objective about right now, as i approach my ' culmination ' . Thanks to the support of you guys on here, now. I need it , believe me, i really do.
Maybe i was being a bit flippant about the pet bedding. I think you are supposed to send them back to the OR, who will deal with them on your behalf. Having said that, i have'nt done this myself. because, well, its just another inconvenience.

I agree with mc. Keep it up!
Thanks to the support of the forum for keeping me strong. And sane. Well, as much as I can be.....
I doubt the guilt will ever leave me but at least I know that I'm not the only one feeling like this.

It's even possible that the various telephone answering staff haven't co-ordinated all that well with the letter-writing staff (or computers), if it's only last week. Some companies are not too good at internal communication. Don't ring them: they are either being incompetent or malevolent, as they already know what they have to know.
Whatever, strong and sane with the kettle on is a whole lot better than whimpering in terror in the corner, which is what I'm good at.
Bankrupt is actually good in its way, 'cos the panic can start to go and you get a chance to deal with things.
This too shall pass!0
