My wife and Myself need to go Bankrupt, Where to Start ?

Hi All,

Having the Baliffs knocking on your door (again) really has tipped us both over the edge.

Not knowing how much you owe, having ignored and dismissed debt letters that have been coming through.

Living n rented accomodation and trying to leave your debts behind after every move ( 6 -12months ) has finally worn us both down. We have now decided that we cannot take any more of this.

Who is out there that can help us ?

Regards
S

    Have you been to the citizens advice? I went there and got really good free advice about money and debts

    Hi, Yes i went to the CAB a few years ago, wasnt that impressed however after starting filling the necessary bankruptcy forms things just got put off. By doing that this has now created an even bigger hole for ourselves...

    Hi, give National Debtline a ring and have a chat about your circumstances as they are at the moment. THey can also go through any changes that have happened in BR since you were last advised.Telephone: 0808 808 4000

    Have a read of the Look HEre First sticky and there is loads of useful info on there with lots of good bedtime reading.

    Read the forums, ask questions, read, read and read some more and then ask more questions.

    We will help and support you all we can
