    So as the title says really.
    Not sure how I feel just yet don't think it's hit me
    Not looking to the OR interview but not heard from them yet

    Hiya Zemanga27 and welcome to September's BR Club, I've added your name to post one :beer:
    It took a while for it to hit me too, but the relief will set in soon.

    The OR interview is nothing to worry about, its just for the OR to get a feel why you went BR. Before the call just look through your 6.28/SOA so your familiar with what you have said. The OR will just go through your 6.28/SOA with you. Also before the call have a big mug of tea ready or a bottle of water, and while they are writing things down you can have sips of tea/water, so you don't feel you have to fill in the pauses. And if you don’t know the answer to a question just say so. Do have a list with all questions ‘you’ want to ask. Can last anything from half an hour to an hour and a half.

    Best wishes

    I was made bankrupt (I'd PG'd something for my partners business which then defaulted on payment and so I've found myself here)
    So I don't have a 6.28/SOA or anything.
    Waiting for the OR to make contact.
    At the moment it's the reality that seemingly being a bankrupt is worse than a criminal. The repercussions last a lot longer :-)
    But I know we will get through it just September next year seems a long time away!

    I phoned the court yesterday to make my appointment so I should be made bankrupt on the 17th.

    Not sure if I should be feeling happy/relieved/worried!

    Aww bless you, there is no right or wrong way to feel, all I know is the relief of no more stress/letters/phone calls is a life changer :A

    Went bankrupt on the 3rd and going through everything with the OR right now. Great idea to have a support network of people going through the same thing....
