Hi Markyb, I take it you have received a creditors petition for bankruptcy, THey may have the business wrong, but that wont stop the judge making a bankruptcy order. All you can do is contact the lender and agree a repayment plan if you can or go to the hearing and dispute the debt if you have valid groundsHi, im Debtinfo, i am an ex insolvency examiner and over the years have personally dealt with thousands of bankruptcy cases.
Please note that any views i put forth are not those of my former employer The Insolvency Service and do not constitute professional advice, you should always seek professional advice before entering insolvency proceedings.0 -

ok then attend the hearing, tell the judge, and as soon as the order is granted contact the Official Receiver that is appointed and tell them what is happening, they will then have no need to go to your work placeHi, im Debtinfo, i am an ex insolvency examiner and over the years have personally dealt with thousands of bankruptcy cases.

in the **********county court in bankruptcy
in ther matter of the insolvency act 1986
Bankruptcy petition
we, lombard north central PLC (creditor) of 3 princess way, redhill, RH1 1NP petition
the court that a bankruptcy order be made against ****** ***** t/a **** ****** (debtor) of ***** **********
and carrying on business from the ****** **** ** say as follows:
1 the debtor has, for the greator part of 6 months preceeding the presentation of this
petition, carried on business from the ****** **** ***** within the district of this court
2 the debtor is justly and truly indebtedto us in the aggregate sum of £46,388.86
persuant to a judgement of the county courtdated 4 september 2008 and numbered ******** ,
where it was ordered that the debtor do pay the creditor the sum of £39,604.54, together with interest and costs.
the debtor has not paid the amount owed or any part thereof.
3 the above-mentioned debt is for a liquidated sum payable immediately and the debtor appears unable to pay it.
4 on 14 september 2010 a statutory demand for the repayment of the above mentioned debt was served upon the debtor by way of personal service.
to the best of our knoweledge and belief the statutory demand has neither been complied with nor set aside in accordance with the insolvancy rules 1986 and no application to set it aside is outstanding.
5 we do not, nor does any person on our behalf, hold any security on the debtors estate, or any part thereof,
for the payment of the above-mentioned sum.
6 the debtors centre of main interests is in england. the council regulation (ec) no *********** (regulation) on insolvency proceedings will apply. these proceedings are main proceedings within the meaning of the regulation.
7 the petitioner therefore prays as follows:
(a) that a bankruptcy order be made against the debtor under the provisions of the insolvency act 1986; or
(b) that such order be made as the court thinks fit.
endorsment
this petition having been presented to the court on15/10 2010 it is ordered that the petition shall be heard as follows
date 29th november 2010 time **
and you the above named ******* ********** t/a ****** ********** are to take notice that if you intend to oppose the petition you must not later than 7 days before the day fixed for the hearing
(i) file in court a notice (in form 6:19) specifying the grounds on which you object to the making of a bankruptcy order; and
(ii) send a copy of the notice to the petitioner or his solicitor.
the petitioning creditor is lombard north central plc

Sorry, don't really know what to advise, but didn't want to read and run....
I would think you need to go to court on the date with the paperwork you mentioned and prove your employment status in court. Get some advise from the debt charities just as you would if you were petitioning for bankruptcy and make sure this is the right thing to happen in your circumstances.
