  • Ohh bless CAB, they did phone back:j

    So we progress a bit more, CAB will now fax our financial statements to Grant Thornton who act as Insolvancy Practitioners and we should hear back next week on what DH's monthly payment order (not sure if that's the right term) is likely to be and get a date for an appt with them to apply for BR i think :o

    So need to save £100 for DH's BR fee and £500 for me to buy out the trustees interest in the house and how ever much they agree he should pay each month.

    Have a deep ache in the pit of my stomach. I suppose with the house valued so low we really have no alternative and that's quite a wake up call.

  • Morning, thanks guys i'm okay, actually worried about DH, the thought of him having to be grilled about how and why this has happened isn't nice. And basically it's all happened because of me.

    CAB were quite adament that they didn't want me to go BR because of my job, which is a bit annoying as it has all been my doing and i feel it's unfair DH will have the scrutiny.

    Anyway at least things should start to move.

    Phone Opus too and they were saying if you agree a DMP with them there are three plans, one charges interest of 0.5%pa and the other two plans charge 0%. God if they charged reasonable interest in the first place this would not have happened and we could have paid our way out.

    Right need to get ready for work, last day till Tuesday :beer: and friends coming over to play with the children this afternoon, house a total mess, so fingers crossed DH will hoover or something:rotfl:

    Have a lovely day,
    PWD xx

    Have you got the reciept for the parcel you sent with the post office, is so make sure you claim when your 21 days is up I have had this in the past and although you are out of pocket for a few weeks I did get my money back with postage. Its easy to think oh well never mind.

  • Thanks HWG, i'll send her the refund, at least it should keep my % up!
    I've never had to claim before which is good going as i've sold lots over the years and the village PO know that so hopefully should all be okay. :)

    Sorry you're up too early too, must be all that sunshine :D xx
