Morning all.

Does anyone know if a family loan to get a car after going BR can be included in your SOA expenditure?

My father lent me £850 to get a car after my new car on HP had to be returned because Citroen Finance were one of my creditors in BR.

My father really couldn't afford this money but being the kind person he is, he lent us the money so I could get a runner for work. I would dearly love to pay him back, hence my question about including a repayment plan into my SOA.

Many thanks.

    Would not be allowed as expense, but if you could possibly juggle your money within your allowances there is nothing to stop you paying him back.
