Hi All,
Please help me and give some advise.
I have been made bankrupt in 2012 with my business and was discharged 8 month later. I have always given all the information the Official Receiver needed. The official receiver didn't ask everything together, my share of the property; the car; a year later a letter for the life insurance… to be honest I would liked they ask everything in one go so I could move on with my life.
Recently they have contacted me again after more than a year being discharged, saying they have a few small questions to ask me regarding that they may have a chance to claim from one of my debtor (people who own me money).
I just find this frustrating as I really only please just let me move on?!
How long can they contact me like this? Every other few month a letter with something new? Am I still obliged to help?
Thank you for your understanding.

I am one year post discharge and still in contact with trustee and a house, ex partner and a declaration of trust and they are, like you still trying to get money, in my case from said ex.
I would give them any information you can, its their job to try to release any funds they can.
This will have no real impact on your life we are free to move on and live again.
Mine has been very helpful and supportive, I have been lucky.
He told me at our first meeting "this is not the start of the next part but the end..we take over now"
Maybe that will help you x0 -
