    OR just called to introduce herself.She sounds nice & friendly just went over a few details.
    Happy for my account to stay open with my bank which is such a relief , is calling later this month to go over SOA.
    Still do not feel anything of relief, tearful & smiling , maybe a bit shocked I think.
    Through the post I had my form , declaring my BR, so it's official. Also reassured me it won't appear in any publication , including the gazette , due to my history . Now I'm beginning to feel bit okayish.
    I want to thank the support from the ppl on here. In my darkest days , you made sense of it , helped me & advised me .
    It's made me see ppl in another way
    Bless you

    I'm really pleased that everything is falling into place now for you, WWDIT, and I'm glad you found lots of support here.

    Fingers crossed things start to settle down a bit for you now and you can get on with the rest of your life.

    (((hugs)))

    Hello. :wave:

    Looks like I'll be joining this month. Several years of trying to clear my debt has been hindered too much by life and stress.

    Been reading up over the weekend and got loads of reassurance from this borad.

    Rang the court today to see if an appointment was needed. Was looking at next week but clerk not available after this week for a month :eek: So court this Friday and then judge Tuesday as noone in until then.

    dd sould be 14th May

    Hi Keeping Positive and welcome to May's BR board and I have added your name to post one :beer:
    Best wishes

    Well, after all the debacle I am bankrupt. And my OR seems really nice, which is a relief.

    Would it be inappropriate for my first purchase as a bankrupt to be wine? ;)

  • Well all done. Ended up in an actual court room :eek: but only the Judge and I and for a couple of minutes.

    Now to open a new bank account and wait for the OR call.
