Hi March2012 and Welcome to the BR board. I presume you are talking about your OH?
CAB, do not recommend BR lightly and had all the facts to hand as opposed to this 'someone' else!!

Do try another of the debt free charities. Please try these they don't charge and are impartial. They will go through all your options with you and if they suggest bankruptcy then come back to this board and we will help you all we can. Also if your not ‘clicking’ with one of the Debt charities do try another. We advise you to try at least two for your own piece of mind. Your BR could be refused if you have not sought advice.
