OR Interview Call

Hey,

I've just had my O/R Interview done over the phone.

The guy I spoke to wasn't interested in small talk and sounded like the was reading from a script.

I gave honest answers throughout and the call lasted 25 mins max.

What was annoying was he said they don't call mobiles to do the interview and I needed to call them back.

He asked about 4 questions with regards to my debt and why it was sourced and what I did with the money.

I asked if there was any more I needed to do and he just read a brief message about obtaining new credit and they will now contact everyone for me.

I was a little worried prior to the call, but it was nothing at all to worry about.

Now to rebuild my life.

    yes the mobile thing is one of the cutbacks, pain in the !!!! for them as well as many times the bankrupt doesent end up calling on time and they end up calling the mobile to remind them anyway.

    There's a way round that cost DI. They purchase an 'office' mobile with free texts for a tenner a month. Then just text the BR each time to remind them to call...
